“The Afterparty”, our favorite genre-hopping show returns for season 2 and makes it a family affair. The Apple TV+ streaming show premiered in 2022 centering around a murder that takes place at a high school reunion. The sophomore season transports us to a wedding turned funeral.
We had the chance to sit down with four of the new cast members to discuss murders most foul, alibis, and accomplices. Elizabeth Perkins (“Weeds” “Big”) and Anna Konkle (“Pen15”, The Drop) play Isabel and Hannah Minnows, a mother and adoptive daughter duo. Jack Whitehall (“Jungle Cruise”, “Fresh Meat”) and Paul Walter Hauser (“Black Bird”, “I, Tonya”) star as Sebastian, associate of the groom, and Travis, an ex of the bride.
