WATCH: The trailer for HBO’s Big Little Lies Season 2
- Season 1 is available to binge-watch on Showmax if you need to catch up.
- Season 2 arrives on Showmax and DStv at the same time – every Monday night at 21:00 for seven weeks, until 22 July 2019. Stream episode 1 right now.
The Monterey Five – Madeline (Reese Witherspoon), Jane (Shailene Woodley), Renata (Laura Dern), Bonnie (Zoe Kravitz) and Celeste (Nicole Kidman) – are back, with more covering up to do, more at stake, and even greater risks in Season 2 of HBO’s Golden Globe- and Emmy-winning thriller series Big Little Lies.
Why? Because Mary Louise Wright (Meryl Streep) is in town, and she wants to find out what happened to her son. And she’s not going to be played for a fool.
Will they be able to cover their tracks and continue to hide the truth from Mary Louise as well as the rest of Monterey, including their own families? The only way to know is by streaming Season 2 on Showmax – brand-new episodes will land every Monday from 10 June 2019.
And if you’re new to Monterey, find out how these five complex, flawed and fierce women found themselves in hot water in the first place in Season 1 on Showmax.
