The ’Burbs Season 2 Adds Daniel Ezra, Retta and Vincent Kartheiser

The neighborhood is getting a few new faces, and something tells us they aren't all coming over to borrow a cup of sugar. Peacock's mystery comedy The ’Burbs is expanding its cast for Season 2, adding Daniel Ezra, Retta, and Vincent Kartheiser in recurring guest-starring roles.

The series, starring Keke Palmer, is also giving one familiar character a bigger presence. RJ Cyler has been promoted to series regular, meaning fans can expect to see more of Samira's younger brother, Langston, when the show returns.

Three Familiar Faces Join the Neighborhood

Daniel Ezra, best known for playing Spencer James on All American, is heading into the Peacock comedy following his work on All the Sinners Bleed. He'll be joined by Retta, whose credits include Good Girls and Parks and Recreation, and Vincent Kartheiser, known for Mad Men and Das Boot.

Details about their characters are being kept under wraps, so there's no telling whether they'll be friendly neighbors, suspicious newcomers, or people with secrets of their own. Considering what goes down in this neighborhood, trusting anybody too quickly probably isn't the best idea.

RJ Cyler Gets a Bigger Role in Season 2

One of the biggest developments is Cyler's promotion to series regular. The actor, whose previous credits include The Harder They Fall and Rap Sh!t, will return as Langston, the younger brother of Palmer's Samira.

Elizabeth Hurley is also joining the second season as a series regular, as previously announced. Returning cast members include Keke Palmer, Jack Whitehall, Julia Duffy, Paula Pell, Mark Proksch, and Kapil Talwalkar.

What's Next for The ’Burbs?

Inspired by the 1989 horror-comedy film of the same name, The ’Burbs follows a young couple who reluctantly move into the husband's childhood home. Their suburban fresh start quickly unravels when a mysterious neighbor arrives across the street, exposing long-buried secrets and bringing deadly threats to their seemingly peaceful neighborhood.

With new characters joining the mix and Langston becoming a larger part of the story, Season 2 has plenty of opportunities to stir up more suburban trouble. Whether the newcomers are bringing answers or creating even more mysteries remains to be seen.

Peacock has not announced a Season 2 premiere date.
