The Monterey ladies are returning soon
Initially, we weren't sure how we felt about another season of 'Big Little Lies', the first was just so good there really felt like no need for more. However now that we have the likes of Meryl Streep on board along with all the rest of the fantastic cast returning, well, how could you not be excited?
Here's what you should know about season 2 of 'Big Little Lies' so far:
1. Meryl!
Yep Meryl Streep joins the cast as Perry's (Alexander Skarsgård) mother Mary Louise Wright. She arrives in Monterey looking for answers over his son's death, which eh, yeah, are not ones she will want to hear.
2. New director
Jean-Marc Vallée will sadly not be returning as director for season 2. He will be replaced by Andrea Arnold, who previously directed episodes of 'Transparent' and 'I Love Dick'.
3. Everyone is coming back
Yep, all the gang are getting back together with Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Kidman, Shailene Woodley, Zoë Kravitz and Laura Dern all reprising their roles, as well as Adam Scott.
