The suburban horror mayhem is officially expanding as Peacock’s comedy series “The ‘Burbs“ gears up for another chaotic round of cul-de-sac secrets. Season two brings major cast upgrades and exciting fresh faces to the neighborhood block.
Key Cast Promotions and Fresh Faces
Variety revealed that RJ Cyler (pictured) has officially been promoted to series regular status for the upcoming second season. The neighborhood also welcomes three fantastic new recurring guest stars to join the madness.
Daniel Ezra, best known for “All American,” joins the suburban fray alongside “Parks and Recreation” star Retta. Additionally, “Mad Men” alum Vincent Kartheiser signs on to stir up trouble next door. These newcomers promise even more unpredictable energy to the suburban nightmare.
A Star-Studded Returning Ensemble
These new additions will share the screen with previously announced series regular Elizabeth Hurley. Core cast members Keke Palmer and Jack Whitehall also return to lead the neighborhood defense. Fan favorites Julia Duffy, Paula Pell, Mark Proksch, and Kapil Talwalkar return to reprise their roles.
Reimagining a Cult Horror Classic
Inspired by the beloved 1989 Joe Dante horror-comedy classic, the series follows a young couple relocating to a childhood home. However, their peaceful suburban dream instantly shatters when mysterious new neighbors arrive.
Showrunner Celest Hughey adapted the feature film for television alongside executive producer Hilary Winston. Multi-hyphenate star Keke Palmer also executive produces alongside Seth MacFarlane’s Fuzzy Door banner and Imagine Entertainment. Original screenwriter Dana Olsen also serves as co-executive producer to maintain that authentic retro charm.
