Season 2 of “La Brea” — Here’s the Definitive Guide to Its Premiere, Trailer, and Cast!

By Willie Neal On Oct 12, 2022

The future setting in science fiction offers unlimited possibilities compared to the past and present. La Brea will continue to thrill genre aficionados in September 2021. Despite mixed reviews, it seems that critical remarks are less essential in genres like sci-fi, with fan reception to the show being much more positive. NBC renewed La Brea for a second season due to fan response.

La Brea’s opening idea didn’t disappoint spectators. Los Angeles’ La Brea Tar Pits are destroyed by a gigantic sinkhole. Add to this mayhem a doorway to 10,000 B.C., and you have sci-fi entertainment. Even the short Season 1 synopsis is enough to thrill sci-fi lovers, so it’s no wonder the show got a second season. Season 2 is almost here, so it’s important to keep La Brea fans excited.

What Date Will La Brea Season 2 Debut?

It makes perfect sense to find that Season 2 of the show premiered on September 27, 2022, almost precisely a year after Season 1 did on September 28, 2021. The second season of the program will premiere on NBC, with episodes streaming on Peacock.

After Season 1’s later release in August, show fans in the UK will regrettably have to wait for Season 2. But you can watch Season 1 in the UK by joining Paramount+.

Who’s in Season 2?

Season 1 fans grew to appreciate La Brea’s relatively obscure cast, so it’s wise to recap which characters will return this year. Eve Harris joins Jack Martin, Eoin Macken, and Zyra Gorecki (Natalie Zea). Chiké Okonkwo (Being Mary Jane) will return as Ty Coleman, Veronica St. Clair (Unbelievable) as Riley Velez, Rohan Mirchandaney (Hotel Mumbai) as Scott Israni, and Lily Santiago (Screwed) as Veronica Castillo.

The ensemble cast, especially Natalie Zea, won plaudits for Season 1, leaving fans optimistic for Season 2. Jonno Roberts (Wrecked) plays scientist/businessman James. This group, paired with showrunner David Applebaum’s vision, should make for a delightful season.

Take a Look at the La Brea Season 2 Trailer

Although it is only 15 seconds long, NBC’s teaser trailer for the upcoming season of the show was made available on their YouTube account on June 30, 2022. With a variety of locations and expansive set pieces visible throughout this brief teaser, the trailer offers us a feel of the scale we may expect from Season 2.

The teaser conveys a sense of high-octane action, which many first-season critics felt the program lacked. The vibe is ominous and frightening. The anticipation and mystery around Season 2 will reportedly last until its debut but only so much can be seen in 15 seconds of film.

What Happens in Season 2 of La Brea?

After Season 1, many questions remained unanswered for the show’s viewers, and they will be hoping for clarifications throughout Season 2’s storyline. Of course, exact storyline information won’t be divulged until the new season is broadcast, but the locations of the Harris family members are at least partially known.

Inadvertently entering a portal, Josh (Jack Martin) found himself in 1988, while Gavin (Eoin Macken) and Izzy (Zyra Gorecki) were on the other side of history in ancient Seattle. This setup raises a lot of questions about how the family will reunite, and it also suggests a variety of places for Season 2, which should ideally provide stunning cinematography and CGI.
