Poker Face is case-of-the-week murder mystery series led by Natasha Lyonne. She plays a casino worker Charlie Cale, who goes on a run from a sinister casino boss, and uses her special talent to detect lies to solve crimes across the United States.

Each episode features a new set of colorful characters, with Adrien Brody, Dascha Polanco, Ron Perlman, Chloë Sevigny, Brandon Micheal Hall, Judith Light, and many more in guest roles.

NBCUniversal Television and Streaming’s Susan Rovner described Poker Face as one of those rare, undeniable shows that they fell in love with from the very start, adding that the critical response has been beyond their wildest dreams.

“Working alongside the creative genius of Rian Johnson, Natasha Lyonne, and Ram Bergman, along with our partners at MRC and T-Street, has been a spectacular ride, and we can’t wait to hit the road for another season as we continue to build momentum across Peacock’s originals slate,” said Rovner in a statement.

Poker Face premiere on Peacock on January 26, and new episodes are still airing, while the season finale is set to premiere on March 9.

Jamil (The Good Place) and Meadows (Saturday Night Live) are among five new cast members added to the star-studded cast. Nicholas Cirillo (Outer Banks, Jesus Revolution), Audrey Corsa (All Rise, Dear Edward), and Niall Cunningham (And Just Like That, Life in Pieces) are also set to join the Peacock series.

In addition to Lyonne, Poker Face will also star Adrien Brody, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Stephanie Hsu, Chloë Sevigny, Dascha Polanco, and Lil Rel Howery, among others.

The series received a ten-episode order and it’s expected to follow a procedural format, with a new mystery being solved in each episode. Knives Out director Rian Johnson serves as creator, writer, director, and executive producer, and he’s looking forward to joining forces with Lyonne.

“I’m very excited to dig into the type of fun, character-driven, case-of-the-week mystery goodness I grew up watching. It’s my happy place. Having Natasha as a partner in crime is a dream, and we’ve found the perfect home at Peacock,” said Johnson in a statement.
