Here’s a look at the preview images released alongside the date announcement teaser (which awaits you above) – followed by some personal thoughts on what’s to come from Weisman:
“I first discovered ‘Based on a True Story’ as a fan of Kaley Cuoco and Chris Messina and was immediately hooked by the addictive mix of black humor, thrilling action and likable characters. In Season 2, we expanded on these exciting themes while introducing driving new character dynamics and an evolving crime story,” said showrunner, writer and executive producer Annie Weisman was communicated in a letter with the date announcement and preview images.
Weisman added, “Season 2 begins with Ava and Nathan trying to balance their parenting roles with their obsession with true crime. Kaley and Chris deliver exceptional performances, bringing depth, authenticity and comedic chemistry to every moment. Tom Bateman’s portrayal of Matt effortlessly switches between charming and creepy, while Liana Liberato embodies Tory’s feisty free spirit. And we’re thrilled to welcome Melissa Fumero to the series in a surprising new role. The entire cast does a great job of balancing humor and heart, creating a deeply funny, unpredictable and engaging viewing experience. I can’t wait for you to join us on this wild ride. Murder Bunnies, assemble!”
