“Big Mistakes” Season 2 is now in production, with the Netflix comedy series adding two actors in recurring roles.
Both Lorenzo de Moor and Poorna Jagannathan will recur in the show’s second season, joining returning
stars Dan Levy, Taylor Ortega, Laurie Metcalf, Jack Innanen, Boran Kuzum and Abby Quinn. As previously announced, Elizabeth Perkins has been upped to series regular status for Season 2.
de Moor will play Leo, while Jagannathan will play Dréa. Exact character details are being kept under wraps.
de Moor has starred in Italian films like “Dolce Fine Giornata” and American releases like “Another Simple Favor” and “You, Me & Tuscany.” Next up, he will be seen in features including “The Resurrection of the Christ: Part One,” the reboot of “Cliffhanger,” and “Maserati: The Brothers.”
Jagannathan currently stars in the HBO-DC Studios series “Lanterns” and is fresh off her role as Lucky in the critically-acclaimed Hulu comedy “Deli Boys.” She previously starred in the Netflix series “Never Have I Ever” and has been in shows like “The Night Of” at HBO and “Better Call Saul.” In film, she is known for roles in “Delhi Belly,” “Wolfs,” and “Turtles All the Way Down.”
de Moor is repped by Volver Consulenze Artistiche and 42. Jagannathan is repped by Gersh, Untitled, and Hansen Jacobson.
The official logline for Season 1 of “Big Mistakes” states that it “follows Nicky (Levy) and Morgan (Ortega), two deeply incapable siblings who are in over their heads when a misguided theft for their dying grandmother accidentally pulls them into the world of organized crime. Blackmailed into increasingly dangerous assignments, they clumsily fail upwards, sinking deeper into chaos they’re ill-equipped to handle.”
Levy created the series and serves as executive producer and showrunner in addition to starring. Rachel Sennott also co-created the series and executive produces. Anne-Marie McGintee executive produces for Not a Real Production Company, with Jacqui Rivera and Timothy Greenberg also executive producing.
