Celeste’s (Nicole Kidman) abusive husband (Alexander Skarsgård) met his demise, which has resulted in the characters played by Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern, and Zoë Kravitz now being known as the infamous “Monterey Five” in the forthcoming season.

Perry’s fatal fall meant that Skarsgård will not be returning to the HBO show for its second season, surely?

Well, not according to his on-screen wife.

At a panel discussion for the season 2 premiere, Kidman appeared to have let out a spoiler, which caused her co-star and fellow executive producer, Witherspoon, to motion she stop speaking.

“[Alexander] was the most incredible acting partner, and then he came back for season 2,” said the Aquaman star. “He has a little bit of a part in the sense of… the basis of… okay, I’ll be quiet. He didn’t abandon us. We’ll put it that way.”

Hmmm…

What we do know for certain is that Meryl Streep has joined the cast as Perry’s mother, who wants answers about her son’s death.

The entire cast gushed about having the multiple-Oscar winner onboard, with James Tupper going so far as saying, “It was like meeting the Queen of England.”

Big Little Lies returns June 9th.

According to the reports, Andrea Arnold (Wasp) will replace Jean-Marc Vallée as a director for the upcoming season, with both Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman returning to reprise their roles. It is expected that the majority of the cast will also make a return.

“It gives us the opportunity to delve deeper into the lives of these intriguing and intricate Monterey families and bring more of their stories back to the audience who embraced and championed them,” said Witherspoon in a statement. “I’m beyond excited to be working with talented and acclaimed director Andrea Arnold who will be at the helm. Andrea’s unique storytelling style will be a welcome addition to the filmmaking team.”

“This is inspired by the overwhelming response by audiences around the world … What a journey this has been. I’m so grateful to have this opportunity to keep exploring these female characters and make this series with my friends.” added Kidman.

Based on Liane Moriarty’s novel of the same name, Big Little Lies follows three women, Madeline, Celeste, and Jane (played by Witherspoon, Kidman and Shailene Woodley) as they get involved in a murder investigation. The series ended up receiving critical acclaim, being described as “bitingly funny and highly addictive”.

The new episodes of the show will be based on a story which was partially written by Liane Moriarty and will explore “malignancy of lies, the durability of friendships, the fragility of marriage and, of course, the vicious ferocity of sound parenting.” HBO promises that the second season explores a familiar territory while also “breaking new ground”.
