Fun Facts
- Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan have history; on screen at least. The two previously starred together in the Coen Brothers' Inside Llewyn Davis (2013), where Isaac played a struggling folk singer and Mulligan his sharp-tongued ex-girlfriend. Fans of that film will find a familiar charged tension between them in Season 2.
- When the trailer dropped, critics were quick to compare Season 2 to The White Lotus. Creator Lee Sung Jin sees it differently though, describing this season's anger as the inverse of Season 1 which is less explosive road rage, more the slow-burning passive-aggressive kind that lives in forced smiles and loaded silences.
