And that’s not the only question, among Mary’s many secrets, looming over the season two. Her former professor Anton, played by Edgar Ramirez, arrives on the scene and it’s not long before he makes a move on Mary.
Wolf Like Me in its first season starred Gad as a widowed father living in Australia and struggling with grief as he raises his daughter (Ariel Donoghue). Mary (Fisher) has a secret she can’t share with anyone, even as the universe seemed to bring her and Gary together.
“Maybe the universe is trying to tell us it’s too dangerous,” an emotionally distraught Mary declares at one point in the new trailer. We also see Mary brandish her fierce wolf fangs during a painful labor and delivery that has Gary ever struggling to hide her secrets.
The second season of Wolf Like Me will debut on Peacock Oct 19. Abe Forsythe created, wrote, directs and executive produces the romantic comedy. The executive producer credits are also shared by Jodi Matterson, Bruna Papandrea and Steve Hutensky for Made Up Stories, which produces the series with Fifth Season and Stan.
Emma Lung, Anthony Taufa and Honour Latukefu also star in the seven-episode second season, which was shot in Australia.
