‘Cruel Summer’ Season 2 Cast

‘Cruel Summer’ Season 2 Cast — The wildly popular ‘Cruel Summer’ has made its long-awaited return after the first season became Freeform’s most-watched series in network history. Season 2 premieres on June 5 and is setting up a whole new story and mystery, along with a brand-new cast.

Set in an idyllic waterfront town in the Pacific Northwest, the next chapter of ‘Cruel Summer’ follows the rise and fall of an intense teenage friendship. Approaching the story from three different timelines surrounding Y2K, the season twists and turns as it tracks the early friendship between Megan, Isabella, and Megan’s best friend Luke, the love triangle that blossomed, and the mystery that would impact all of their lives going forward.

The second season stars Sadie Stanley, Lexi Underwood, Griffin Gluck, KaDee Strickland, Lisa Yamada, and Sean Blakemore. Paul Adelstein and Braeden De La Garza will recur. See more photos of the ‘Cruel Summer’ season 2 cast in our gallery now.
