Netflix has finalized the guest cast for the upcoming second season of its comedy series 'Big Mistakes.' Randall Park, Debi Mazar, T.R. Knight, and Jeff Perry have all signed on for guest star roles. The network announced these additions as production on the new season concludes.
The series previously established its core group of performers. Dan Levy and Taylor Ortega return as the lead siblings. Laurie Metcalf, Jack Innanen, Boran Kuzum, and Abby Quinn are also returning for the new episodes. Elizabeth Perkins has been promoted to series regular status. Lorenzo de Moor and Poorna Jagannathan will appear in recurring capacities.
Each new cast member has a specific character assignment. Park will portray Peter Lin. Mazar will play a character named Pam. Knight is set to appear as Reverend Crosby. Perry will take on the role of Walt. The production team has kept additional details about these characters confidential.
The story follows Nicky and Morgan, two siblings who accidentally enter the world of organized crime after a misguided theft intended for their dying grandmother. They are blackmailed into dangerous assignments and clumsily fail their way through the chaos. Dan Levy created the show, serves as executive producer and showrunner, and stars in the series. Rachel Sennott co-created the project and serves as an executive producer.
Anne-Marie McGintee executive produces for Not a Real Production Company. Jacqui Rivera and Timothy Greenberg also hold executive producing credits. Dean Holland and Iain MacDonald serve as executive producers and directed four episodes each. Park is represented by UTA, Artists First, and Myman Greenspan. Mazar is represented by Curtis Brown Group, Realm Talent, and Framework Entertainment. Knight is represented by Buchwald and Authentic. Perry is represented by Principal Entertainment LA.
The first season premiered with a logline describing the siblings as deeply incapable and in over their heads. They sink deeper into a chaotic situation they are ill-equipped to handle. The second season builds on this premise with the addition of the new guest stars.
