In the first season, John Sugar investigates the disappearance of Olivia Siegel, the granddaughter of a powerful Hollywood producer. His inquiry leads him to uncover long-buried and recent family secrets, while gradually revealing the peculiarities of the show's central figure.
Season 2 shifts the investigation to a new missing person case: the brother of a promising young boxing prodigy. John Sugar, meanwhile, pursues a more personal quest tied to his missing sister. The storytelling keeps its footing in the private-detective thriller while expanding the darker, more unconventional edge laid out in the first season.
Colin Farrell returns to the role of John Sugar and will also stay on as an executive producer. The new season features Jin Ha, Raymond Lee, Tony Dalton, Laura Donnelly, Sasha Calle and Shea Whigham. Sam Catlin serves as showrunner, alongside executive producers including Audrey Chon, Simon Kinberg and Scott Greenberg.
Between a crime drama, neo-noir storytelling and a contemporary investigation, Sugar targets audiences drawn to detective series, Hollywood mysteries, and fiction that play with the classic codes of the genre.
