What’s better than a season of nail-biting television that keeps you at the edge of your seat?
Two seasons, that’s what.
Heart-pounding stuff, right?
It was such a blessing.
We’re all so grateful for the position that we are in.
Jumping back in to Season 2, it’s high stakes.
There’s more thrill.
There’s more suspense.
There’s more love.
You knew these characters' thoughts and their relationships and dynamics.
And this season if you thought Season 1 was crazy, this season’s going to be on steroids.
Tejada: Yes, and yes, but I can’t say specifically because I would spoil some.
Tejada: Are you about to spoil something?
van Grootel: I don’t want to say too much!
Your characters are so intricately connected, but the plot can change in a flash.
Without spoiling too much, what can viewers expect to see this season?
Tejada: I love that some of the essences that people reacted so well to are there.
van Grootel: They do trauma bond, don’t they?
Marianly said it well.
Bronwyn’s a mirror for Nate and vice versa.
They’re almost forced not forced, but there’s a want there to fall deeper in love.
Under the circumstances, you got to be able to work through and deal [with] the conflict.
Maybe other murder mysteries, novels, curated music?
van Grootel: You want to take that on?
Tejada: I was going to say, music definitely is the thing that I carry throughout filming.
It’s so accessible to have a playlist that you keep adding songs to.
It really, really helps to get into character.
We had a playlist in Season 1 that we kept adding songs to.
Also, “10 Things I Hate About You.”
We talked about that.
Music’s a big one, too.
It can bring you into your body and your emotional state and have you vibe on that frequency.
Also, the book.
The book is a great reference point, too.
All eight episodes of “One of Us Is Lying” are now streaming on Peacock.
