The buzz around Your Friends & Neighbors on Apple TV+ hasn’t died down since its wild first season hooked everyone with dark laughs and jaw-dropping twists. Jon Hamm’s charm and a killer cast made this crime comedy a hit, and now Season 2’s got fans itching for more. Here’s the latest on when it’s dropping, who’s back, and what’s cooking in Westmont Village.
Your Friends & Neighbors Season 2 Potential Release Date
Apple TV+ gave the green light for Season 2 way back in November 2024, before the first episode even aired on April 11, 2025. That early call shows how much faith they had in the show, and it paid off—Season 1 became their biggest new drama yet. Filming for the next chapter started in April 2025, right after the debut season wrapped.
Looking at how things went last time, Season 1 was shot from April 2024 to early 2025 and hit screens in April. If they’re keeping that pace, Season 2 could pop up around April or May 2026. No exact date’s been spilled yet, but Jonathan Tropper, the show’s creator, dropped a hint about new episodes coming “sooner than you’d think.” Expect a trailer or some teasers as filming wraps up.
Your Friends & Neighbors Season 2 Expected Cast
The gang’s mostly back for another round in Westmont Village. Jon Hamm’s stealing the show again as Andrew “Coop” Cooper, the slick ex-hedge fund guy turned neighborhood burglar. Amanda Peet’s returning as Mel, Coop’s ex who’s got her own battles to fight, and Olivia Munn’s back as Samantha “Sam” Levitt, whose big Season 1 twist left everyone floored. Others likely showing up include:
-
Hoon Lee as Barney Choi, Coop’s buddy and money guy
-
Mark Tallman as Nick Brandes
-
Lena Hall as Allison “Ali” Cooper
-
Aimee Carrero as Elena Benavides
-
Isabel Gravitt as Tori, Coop and Mel’s daughter
-
Donovan Colan as Hunter, their son
-
Eunice Bae in a smaller role
Big news: James Marsden’s joining the crew as a regular. No word yet on who he’s playing—maybe a rich neighbor or someone tied to Sam’s mess—but his roles in Paradise and Jury Duty prove he’ll bring some spark. Also, Arienne Mandi from The Night Agent, Erin Robinson from Moonrise, and Bre Blair from S.W.A.T. are popping in for recurring parts, ready to stir things up.
Some characters, like Robert Eli’s Peter Miller or Heather Lind’s Kat Resnick, might not return after their stories wrapped in Season 1. Nothing’s set in stone, so keep an eye out for updates.
Your Friends & Neighbors Season 2 Potential Plot
Season 1 followed Coop’s slide into stealing from his ritzy neighbors after his life fell apart. It dug into secrets, flings, and a murder mystery around Paul Levitt’s death, which turned out to be Sam’s insurance scam. By the end, Coop was off the hook for murder but doubled down on crime, snagging a pricey Francis Bacon painting and leaning into his bad-guy vibe.
Season 2’s going darker, according to Tropper. Expect more focus on Coop’s family—Mel’s dealing with some serious anger, and their kids, Tori and Hunter, are caught in the chaos. Sam’s story will shift to her rebuilding after her scam blew up, facing the neighborhood’s side-eye while chasing a fresh start. Marsden’s mystery character and the new faces will likely toss in some new drama, maybe new secrets or rivalries.
The show’s mix of sharp humor, suspense, and jabs at rich-folk problems stays front and center. Tropper’s aiming to make it funnier and more intense, with tighter storytelling to keep everyone glued.
