Big Little Lies season 2 trailer: Meryl Streep and Nicole Kidman lock heads in HBO show

HBO has released a trailer for the second season of its star-studded TV show Big Little Lies.

The new season will pick up were the critically-acclaimed first left off – with the lead characters, now dubbed “the Monterey five”, falling apart after covering up the murder of Celeste’s abusive husband, Perry (Alexander Skarsgård).

Making matters worse is the arrival of Perry’s mother, Mary Louise Wright, played by Meryl Streep who’ll join returning cast members Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley, Laura Dern and Zoë Kravitz.

“It’s like we all have scarlet letters on our back,” says Woodley’s character, Jane.

Big Little Lies is based on the novel by Liane Moriarty. You can watch the trailer for season two above.

The series returns to HBO on 10 June and will be available to watch in the UK on Sky Atlantic and NOW TV soon after.
