The Disney+ series “Goosebumps” is coming back for a brand new second season that will feature a new cast, new setting, and new story, and more casting has been announced.
Deadline reports today, “Sam McCarthy (Dead to Me) and Jayden Bartels (Side Hustle) are fraternal twins Devin and Cece, respectively; Elijah Cooper (That Girl Lay Lay) is CJ; Galilea La Salvia (Party Down) is Frankie; and Francesca Noel (R#J) is Alex.”
Previously announced, David Schwimmer (“American Crime Story”) and Ana Ortiz (Monster High 2) will also star in “Goosebumps” Season 2. Deadline notes, “Schwimmer plays the character of Anthony, father of twins Devin and Cece who are visiting dad for the summer.”
The Disney+ series is of course based on R.L. Stine’s iconic series of books.
Here’s the official synopsis for “Goosebumps” Season 2:
“Teenage siblings discover a threat within their home, setting off a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, the duo find themselves entangled in the story of five teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994.”
Plunging viewers into a world of mystery and suspense, the first season of the new “Goosebumps” series followed a group of five high schoolers as they embark on a shadowy and twisted journey to investigate the tragic passing three decades earlier of a teen named Harold Biddle — while also unearthing dark secrets from their parents’ past.
