Preview — Cruel Summer Season 2 Episodes 1 and 2: Welcome to Chatham / Ride or Die

The psychological thriller and anthology series Cruel Summer returns with a splash when Season 2 kicks off in 1999.

Cruel Summer Season 2 Episodes 1 and 2, “Welcome to Chatham / Ride or Die,” trades the suburbs of Season 1’s Skylin, Texas, for the waterfront small-town of Chatham.

On “Welcome to Chatham,” Sadie Stanley’s Megan and Lexi Underwood’s Isabella meet in the Summer of 1999, not knowing how much their lives will change over a year. The two teens cross paths when Megan’s mom Debbie welcomes Isabella, a foreign exchange student, into their home.

“Ride or Die” will dive deeper into that initial summer, showing how Isabella and Megan struggle to connect, so the former turns to Griffin Gluck’s Luke.

Plus, a disastrous Christmas party that winter causes Isabella to search for justice.
