If there are new authorities outside Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette) and Hannah Baker’s (Katherine Langford) high school, Liberty High, there will also be a new head for the school’s baseball team. “Doubt” actor Ben Lawson will give life to the character of Rick, a baseball coach at Liberty High. Related to the sports department is a new head cheerleader named Chloe (Anne Winters), as well as track star Nina (Samantha Logan).

Additionally, there will be another new student at Liberty High. Mischievous Cyrus (Bryce Cass) may cause trouble in the lives of Clay and his peers. Cyrus’ artsy sister, Mackenzie (Chelsea Alden), will also be part of the Season 2 ensemble.

Meanwhile, the production for “13 Reasons Why” Season 2 is currently ongoing. The upcoming season is expected to have a total of 13 episodes just like Season 1.

While speaking with Us Weekly, Minnette was asked to share some details about his character, Clay, for Season 2. According to the actor, viewers will have to wait and see whether or not Clay will find love again after Hannah’s suicide. “The show picks up a few months after Season 1 where we left off, and there’s a lot of catch up to play, and I think people might be a little surprised where Clay is. I don’t know if there’s a new love interest, we’ll just have to see. But I think people will also be surprised by where he ends up, because I’m also trying to figure it out myself right now,” he said.

Season 1 ended with Hannah’s parents listening to the tapes she left behind after committing suicide. Clay and Tony (Christian Navarro), meanwhile, drove away from the city in the final scene.

“13 Reasons Why” Season 2 will premiere on Netflix in 2018.
