According to Netflix’s first look images, Charlie Barnett is also back as Alan Zaveri, who is stuck in his time loop, and Greta Lee is also back as Nadia’s friend Maxine, who has been stuck in her time loop for quite some time.

There is also the return of Rebecca Henderson as Nadia’s and Maxine’s friend Lizzy, played by Rebecca Henderson. Annie Murphy, who stars in Schitt’s Creek, will join the cast in an undisclosed role as one of the new characters on the show.

In the opinion of Lyonne, Murphy’s character is not only an unexpected “ally” to Nadia but also one of the core components of the series and one of its most central components.

The cast for season 2 includes Sharlto Copley from District 9 and Carolyn Michelle Smith, who appears in House of Cards, but their roles have been kept under wraps at this time as well.

Russian Doll Season 2 Plot

Russian Doll Season 2 Plot

When the New York City Subway System teleports Nadia back to 1982, the year of her birth, the Russian Doll uses a Back to the Future vibe as she is teleported back to the year of her birth, 1982.

At that point, she begins a kooky quest to solve a family mystery involving missing gold, which leads her into a kooky race. 

Nadia is thrust into a time stream full of twists. She turns throughout the show as she tries to piece together clues regarding her temporal dislocation, her mom’s mental health issues, and the tragic memories of her Hungarian grandmother as the season unfolds in New York and Budapest.

At the end of Russian Doll season 1, Nadia and Alan could finally escape the respective time loops that led to them dying abruptly before they were resurrected and had to relive the same day again and again.

This season’s finale saw the two lovers being trapped in different timelines where they encounter alternate, pre-time loop versions of each other as they find themselves stuck in a time loop.

During their respective Groundhog Days, these two friends manage to prevent the other from dying for the first time. As a result, their Groundhog Days come to an end.

The second season picks up after the end of season 1, four years later, when Nadia and Alan have to traverse through the past using a time portal located in one of New York City’s most famous landmarks. It is essentially a time travel show.
