Don’t worry, fans will definitely see more of favorite characters like Quiet, Sweet Tooth, Agent Stone, and the other post-apocalyptic survivors trying to stop John Doe from finishing his mysterious delivery. However, since the Twisted Metal video game series has a loose storyline, the show’s plot could go in any direction. Curious about what might happen next? Here’s everything we know about Twisted Metal Season Two.

What is Twisted Metal about

The first season of Twisted Metal introduces a world where society fell apart in the early 2000s. Anthony Mackie stars as John Doe, a quick-witted delivery driver (or “milkman” in this world) with a bad case of amnesia. At the start of Season One, John is given a chance to settle down in the city of New San Francisco. The catch? He must pick up and successfully deliver a mysterious package by driving it across the entire United States.

During his journey, John Doe unwillingly teams up with Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz), a carjacker seeking revenge for her brother’s murder. Their trip to New San Francisco is dangerous, with threats like the relentless lawman Agent Stone (Thomas Hayden Church) and a crazed clown named Sweet Tooth (voiced by Will Arnett and performed by wrestler Samoa Joe), who will do anything to satisfy his thirst for violence.

By the end of Season One, John completes his mission, delivering the mysterious package, which turns out to be a pint of ice cream, to the mysterious Raven (Neve Campbell) in New San Francisco. Having succeeded, John learns that Raven was testing him to see if he had what it takes to be her driver in an upcoming vehicular combat tournament called Calypso’s Twisted Metal competition, an event sure to bring the chaotic spirit of the Twisted Metal franchise to life like never before.

Who’s Starring in Twisted Metal Season 2

Twisted Metal is led by Anthony Mackie, who stars as John Doe, a talented but amnesiac driver trying to uncover the truth about his past while surviving in a post-apocalyptic world. Mackie is best known for his role as Sam Wilson, aka The Falcon, in the MCU, and he will also be seen as the new Captain America in the upcoming sequel, Captain America: Brave New World.

Throughout most of Season One, Mackie was joined by Stephanie Beatriz as Quiet, his close ally. Beatriz is well-known for her roles in popular TV shows like Modern Family and Brooklyn Nine-Nine, as well as for voicing characters in animated series such as Bob’s Burgers, BoJack Horseman, and Big Mouth. Neve Campbell, who plays Raven, another ally of John Doe, is also expected to return, possibly with a bigger role, depending on her availability due to the upcoming Scream VII.

The cast of familiar faces will also include Joe Seanoa, better known to AEW fans as Samoa Joe, who plays the intimidating Sweet Tooth. Will Arnett (famous for Arrested Development and the popular podcast SmartLess) brings his signature comedic style to the role, ensuring that this killer clown’s personality is as wild as his appearance.

Twisted Metal fans will also be excited to see some new faces, like Anthony Carrigan, known for his role as NoHo Hank on HBO’s Barry. He’s been cast as Calypso, the mastermind behind the vehicle combat tournament. Calypso was briefly mentioned in Season One but will have a major role in Season Two, where he promises to grant the winner their heart’s desire. However, if the video game series is any indication, the winner may end up regretting their wish.

Other new cast members include Richard de Klerk (Designated Survivor), Patty Guggenheim (She-Hulk: Attorney at Law), and Tiana Okoye (The Good Place), though their roles have not been revealed yet. Showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith also confirmed that fan-favorite characters Mr. Grimm and Axel will make their debut this season, but the actors playing them have been kept a secret.

It’s also expected that Dollface, John Doe’s apparent sister, will have a bigger role in Season Two. Whether Peacock will cast a well-known actor to add more depth to the character or keep Sadiqua Bynum, who previously portrayed her as a body double, remains uncertain.

When Will season 2 of Twisted Metal Premiere on peacock ?

Season Two of Twisted Metal wasn’t always guaranteed, but after all ten episodes of Season One were released in July 2023 and became Peacock’s most-binged comedy ever, it was clear that a second season was likely. In December 2023, star Anthony Mackie confirmed that Season Two was coming while presenting at The Game Awards.

Production for Season Two moved from New Orleans to Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with filming beginning in July 2024. Photos shared on social media showed Anthony Mackie on a set designed to resemble New San Francisco, the location where his journey ended in Season One. According to PWInsider, filming is expected to wrap up by October 2024.

Now that production is in full swing, fans can expect Twisted Metal Season Two to arrive soon, but not right away. If filming wraps as planned later this month, the editing process will begin, and Season Two likely won’t be released until summer 2025. In the meantime, Peacock subscribers can stream all of Season One’s episodes to enjoy as much post-apocalyptic fun as possible.
