'Secrets and Lies' season 2: Eric Winter to join cast as Neal Oliver
"Secrets and Lies" is set to captivate watchers with its mysterious story as it returns for its second season next year with new names to be added to its cast.
In a previous Christian Post report, it has been revealed that Michael Ealy will join Secrets and Lies season 2 as Eric Warner. Now, another newcomer will hop on board in the person of Eric Winter, who will play the role of Warner's best friend Neal Oliver, according to Realty Today.
In the previous season, Ben Carson (Ryan Philippe) became the main suspect in the murder of a young boy. The plot centered on his efforts to prove his innocence by finding the real killer.
This time, the second season will feature the story of Ealy, a private equity heir whose wife (Jordana Brewster) was murdered. Because the crime coincided with his promotion, he has now been considered as the prime suspect, the report relays.
Juliette Lewis, the only cast member to return to Secrets and Lies, will come back as Detective Andrea Cornell. She will head the investigation of Mrs. Kate Warner's death, Master Herald reports.
Charlie Bennett will also join the cast as Warner's youngest sibling Patrick and Annalynne McCord will be his wife. Terry O'Quinn will be cast as Warner's father John. Mekia Cox will also play the role of Warner's sister Amanda, a criminal lawyer who will help him get out of the sticky situation. Kenny Johnson will play a "downright scary" new suspect, who will complicate matters for Warner.
Meanwhile, Winter's role is interesting because Oliver will not only be Warner's best friend. There are rumors that Oliver might be the main antagonist in Secrets and Lies, the report adds.
As of now, Secrets and Lies season 2 still has no confirmed premiere schedule, but reports say the first episode will be aired next year. More details are expected to be released as the premiere date draws nearer.
