BEEF Season 2: Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan Lead a New Feud

Netflix released the first images from BEEF Season 2 in January 2026, introducing a new story and an entirely new central cast. Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton and Cailee Spaeny lead the eight-episode season.

The anthology moves to an exclusive Southern California country club. Newly engaged employees Ashley and Austin, played by Spaeny and Melton, witness a damaging argument between their manager Josh and his wife Lindsay, played by Isaac and Mulligan. A recorded confrontation becomes leverage, drawing both couples into favors, coercion and a widening struggle for status.

Their conflict unfolds under club owner Chairwoman Park, portrayed by Youn Yuh-jung, who is managing a scandal involving her husband Dr. Kim, played by Song Kang-ho. The setting changes, but creator and showrunner Lee Sung Jin keeps the series focused on resentment, ambition and relationships pushed into open conflict.

The first-look photos highlighted the two couples and the country-club setting. Season 2 is a standalone story: Steven Yeun and Ali Wong do not return as their Season 1 characters, though both remain involved as executive producers.

All eight episodes of BEEF Season 2 premiered on Netflix on April 16, 2026 and are now streaming.
