It’s a little embarrassing for me to admit that I never finished the critically acclaimed Netflix anthology series Beef, which was one of our 34 best shows of 2023, but now that we have news of what to expect from Beef season two I’m prepared to be roped back in. With creator Lee Sung Jin returning as showrunner alongside executive producers Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, who starred in the first season, Beef’s second installment will feature a brand new cast and, more importantly, another drama-riddled incident.
A few months back, rumors that Netflix was eyeing up Oscar Isaac (Dune, Ex Machina) and Carey Mulligan (Maestro, Promising Young Woman) to be the feuding pair in Beef season 2 surfaced, and it’s been confirmed that the two will in fact be leading the cast for the show’s next installment. Joining them will be Charles Melton (May December) and Cailee Spaeny (Priscilla, Civil War), who will also have their share of the beef in the next season of the A24-produced show on one of the best streaming services.
