Will Razor Girl Inspire Season 2?
Season 1 adapted Carl Hiaasen’s novel Bad Monkey. A likely source for Season 2 is Hiaasen’s sequel, Razor Girl. While unconfirmed, the thematic similarities between Razor Girl’s quirky Floridian crime and Bad Monkey‘s established tone suggest it’s a strong contender. However, the writers may choose another Hiaasen novel, draw inspiration from multiple sources, or create an entirely original storyline.
Who’s Returning?
Bill Lawrence is confirmed to return as showrunner, and Vince Vaughn will reprise his role as the flawed protagonist, Andrew Yancy. Further casting announcements are pending. Given the potential adaptation of Razor Girl, new characters are expected, adding another layer of intrigue to the series. The return of familiar faces from Season 1, like Natalie Martinez as Rosa, remains a possibility, but is currently unconfirmed.
