Full Cast and Story Details Revealed For Disney+'s GOOSEBUMPS Season 2
Earlier this week we learned that David Schwimmer was set to star in Disney+’s Goosebumps Season 2. We’ve now learned he will be joined by Ana Ortiz (Love, Victor) and several other actors in the R.L. Stein anthology series.
Oritz takes on the role of Jen, “a dedicated police detective who remains rooted in her Brooklyn neighborhood after experiencing a tragic event that involved her friends in adolescence.” Other cast members include Sam McCarthy (Dead to Me) and Jayden Bartels (Side Hustle) as fraternal twins Devin and Cece, respectively; Elijah Cooper (That Girl Lay Lay) as CJ; Galilea La Salvia (Party Down) as Frankie; and Francesca Noel (R#J) as Alex.
The Season 2 synopsis reads: “The new story begins with Devin and Cece, fraternal twins adjusting to life with their recently divorced dad, Anthony. When the duo discovers a threat stirring, they quickly realize that dark secrets are among them, triggering a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, Devin, Cece and their friends — Alex, CJ and Frankie — find themselves entangled in the chilling tale of four teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994.”
Nicholas Stoller (The Muppets) and Rob Letterman (Pokémon: Detective Pikachu) developed the series and will serve as executive producers alongside showrunner Hilary Winston (Community).
