‘Poker Face’s Natasha Lyonne & Rian Johnson On “Completely Gonzo Bonkers” Season 2 & Which Former Co-Star They Want For Season 3


'Poker Face' star Natasha Lyonne and creator Rian Johnson spoke to Deadline about how they "dig in deeper" with Season 2.

Ahead of the Season 2 premiere, returning to Peacock on May 8 with the first three episodes, Lyonne and series creator Rian Johnson spoke to Deadline about how they “dig in deeper to the character” after she gets the mafia off her back. And with the weekly anthology format that practically stands as its own mystery short, the star-studded guest roster for Season 2 is even longer than its predecessor, featuring reunions with Lyonne’s co-stars from Slums of Beverly Hills(1998), But I’m a Cheerleader(1999) and Orange Is the New Black(2013-’19). RIAN JOHNSON: Well, it struck us in the writers’ room that it felt like kind of the most challenging thing for that character to actually take away this external pressure of being chased and to put it back on her.
