Hey, all you Netflix bingers out there! Remember the buzz around ‘Beef,’ that Emmy-winning show that took us on a crazy road rage ride last year? Well, buckle up, because Season 2 of ‘Beef’ is rumbling towards us, with some exciting casting news to boot!
Hot Off the Negotiation Table
First things first, Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan, known for their stunning performances in anything from ‘Dune: Part One’ and ‘Ex Machina’ to ‘Promising Young Woman’ and ‘The Great Gatsby,’ are being linked to the series. According to Deadline, they are in negotiations to jump aboard this crazy roller coaster for its second season. While Netflix is being coy and staying mum about the matter, the news has definitely sparked the interest of fans and industry folks alike.
The creator of ‘Beef,’ Lee Sung Jin, along with stars Ali Wong and Steven Yeun, took us into a world where a minor road rage incident spirals into a full-blown battle between two people. Their toxic relationship becomes an all-out war that ironically makes for a binge-worthy viewing experience.
New Faces, More Intrigue
Deadline also suggests that Charles Melton and Cailee Spaeny could be added to the mix, though no one really knows what roles they’ll play yet. Now, that’s a mystery we can’t wait to unravel!
Meanwhile, Oscar Isaac isn’t just busy negotiating for ‘Beef.’ He’s also lending his voice to the role of Jesus Christ in the animated film ‘The King of Kings.’ He’s also part of an all-star cast in ‘In the Hands of Dante,’ a story of a man’s descent into a metaphorical hell to find forbidden and improbable love.
On the other hand, Carey Mulligan is voicing Alexandra in Laika Studios’ upcoming stop-motion animation feature ‘Wildwood.’ The story of Prue and her friend Curtis who find themselves caught up in a struggle for the freedom of a mysterious wilderness just sounds like so much fun.
