Mark your calendars! After a suspenseful wait, The Last Thing He Told Me returns for its second season on Friday, February 20th, exclusively on Apple TV+. Jennifer Garner reprises her role as Hannah Hall, navigating a complex web of secrets and lies. This season promises even more twists and turns as Hannah and her daughter, Bailey, continue their search for truth.
A Familiar Face Joins the Fray: Judy Greer’s Intriguing Role
Adding to the excitement, Garner is joined by her longtime friend and 13 Going on 30 co-star, Judy Greer, who portrays the enigmatic Quinn Favreau. Garner expressed her enthusiasm about working with Greer, stating to TV Insider, “There was a really toothsome role written for a woman, and I knew that I would get to go head-to-head with her at the end.” She highlighted Greer’s talent, emphasizing that she was the perfect choice for the role.
Josh Singer, co-creator of the series, described Greer’s character as the “birth of a super villain,” revealing that Garner actively advocated for Greer’s casting. Singer initially knew Greer for her comedic work but was convinced by Garner that she could deliver a compelling dramatic performance. Greer herself was drawn to the show and the book, as well as the opportunity to reunite with Garner and other familiar faces from 13 Going on 30.
Reunions and New Beginnings
Beyond the professional collaboration, the season is marked by heartwarming reunions. Greer shared that working with Garner, Susie DeSanto (costume designer), and Cindy Williams (makeup artist) – all from 13 Going on 30 – added a special layer to the experience. She fondly remembered their late director, Gary Winick, feeling his presence in these reunions.
What to Expect in Season 2
Season 2 picks up with Hannah (Garner) and Bailey (Angourie Rice) attempting to build a new life in the wake of Owen’s (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) disappearance. However, their fragile peace is shattered when Owen unexpectedly reappears after five years on the run. This unexpected return ignites a desperate search for answers, as they strive to understand his past and ultimately reunite as a family.
The premiere episode features a thrilling scene where Hannah urgently searches for Bailey in a theater class. A subtle cue from Hannah signals Bailey to flee, leading to a heart-pounding chase. Hannah takes decisive action, disabling the vehicle pursuing them, allowing her and Bailey to escape.
