Oscar Isaac is set to have beef with someone soon. Netflix has announced that BEEF, the anthology series from Lee Sung Jin has been renewed for a second installment, with Isaac set to star alongside Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Cailee Spaeny.
The second season of the show will consist of eight 30-minute episodes.
The logline for Season 2 reads “A young couple witnesses an alarming fight between their boss and his wife, triggering chess moves of favors and coercion in the elitist world of a country club and its Korean billionaire owner.”
Steven Yeun, Ali Wong, and Jake Schreier are the executive producers.
The first season of BEEF, starring Ali Wong and Steven Yeun won 8 Emmy Awards, 4 Critics Choice Awards, 3 Golden Globe Awards, and 2 SAG Awards, among its many honors.
Isaac has a few other projects in the pipeline. He is set to star alongside Kristen Stewart in the vampire thriller Flesh of the Gods. Set in 1980s Los Angeles, the film follows Raoul (Isaac) and Alex (Stewart), a married couple who cross paths with a “ mysterious and enigmatic ” character who will introduce them to “a glamorous, surrealistic world of hedonism, thrills and violence.”
On top of that, Oscar Isaac will also star alongside Jason Momoa and Gerard Butler in the crime thriller In the Hand of Dante. That film is set to be directed by Oscar nominee Julian Schnabel and executive produced by Martin Scorsese. And he’ll be playing Dr. Victor Frankenstein in Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein.
There’s still no release date for the second season of BEEF.
