Mystery lovers, get excited: Season 2 of Poker Face finally has a release date.

The second season of Rian Johnson and Natasha Lyonne's Columbo-style mystery is coming May 8, and Peacock has released a quick teaser showing off all the mayhem (and guest stars) you can expect.

Following the Season 1 finale, human lie detector Charlie Cale (Lyonne) is on the run from the notorious Beatrix Hasp (Rhea Perlman), head of the Five Families crime syndicate. Once again, she finds herself cracking cases everywhere she goes, with suspects played by Wicked's Cynthia Erivo, John Mulaney, Katie Holmes, Giancarlo Esposito, Awkwafina, Cliff "Method Man" Smith, Justin Theroux, Taylor Schilling, Kumail Nanjiani, and Yellowjackets' Melanie Lynskey.

And that's only the guest stars they show in the teaser! Poker Face Season 2 also features (deep breath) Adrienne C. Moore, Alia Shawkat, Ben Marshall, B.J. Novak, Carol Kane, Corey Hawkins, David Alan Grier, David Krumholtz, Davionte "GaTa" Ganter, Ego Nwodim, Gaby Hoffmann, Geraldine Viswanathan, Haley Joel Osment, Jason Ritter, John Cho, Kathrine Narducci, Kevin Corrigan, Lauren Tom, Lili Taylor, Margo Martindale, Natasha Leggero, Patti Harrison, Richard Kind, Sam Richardson, Sherry Cola, Simon Helberg, and Simon Rex.

But who among these stars will be a victim, and who will be a murderer? We'll have to wait until May 8 to find out.

The first three episodes of Poker Face Season 2 premiere May 8 on Peacock, with new episodes weekly.
