BEEF Season 2 Premieres April 16
Netflix today dropped first look photos from BEEF Season 2 which will see new characters and storylines emerge. The dark comedy anthology series first premiered in April 2023 starring Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, and won both Golden Globes and Emmy Awards.
Premiering April 16, 2026, Season 2 will star Oscar Isaac (Frankenstein, Moon Knight), Carey Mulligan (Maestro, Promising Young Woman), Charles Melton (Warfare, May December), Cailee Spaeny (Priscilla, Civil War), Seoyeon Jang (Butterfly, Good Partner), with additional cast including Youn Yuh-jung (Minari, Pachinko), Song Kang-Ho (Cobweb, Parasite), William Fichtner (Talamasca: The Secret Order, Prison Break), Mikaela Hoover (Superman, One Piece), and musician BM in his acting debut.
Creator and showrunner Lee Sung Jin (Undone, It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia) tells Tudum, “The intention with BEEF was always to have it in anthology. We wanted the feeling of this season’s beef to be a bit more passive-aggressive. It’s more about the internal repression of rage that you see in the workplace.”
BEEF returns with a new cast and a new “beef,” as a Gen-Z couple witnesses an alarming fight between their Millennial boss and his wife. Newly-engaged Ashley Miller (Cailee Spaeny) and Austin Davis (Charles Melton), both lower-level staff at a country club, become entangled in the unraveling marriage of their General Manager, Joshua Martín (Oscar Isaac), and his wife, Lindsay Crane-Martín (Carey Mulligan). Through favors and coercion, both couples vie for the approval of the elitist club’s billionaire owner, Chairwoman Park (Youn Yuh Jung), who struggles to manage her own scandal involving her second husband, Doctor Kim (Song Kang Ho). – Netflix
