With Academy Award winner Olivia Colman set to return as Nick's mom, Sarah Nelson, in season 2, the Nelson family will be expanded further with Jack Barton as Nick's older brother, David Nelson, and Thibault de Montalembert as Nick's estranged father, Stephane.

Fans of the graphic novels will know all too well that these additions spell some trouble for Nick as he wrestles with coming out to the rest of his family.

As for new additions among the Truham-Higgs students, Leila Khan is joining as Sahar Zahid, a Higgs student who shares a room with Elle, Tara, and Darcy on the Paris trip and becomes fast friends with the group.

Bradley Riches, who played a minor role as a student in season 1, will be starring as Truhman student James McEwan this season. Though the character appears in the books, it seems his storyline will be altered, with the trailer teasing a potential connection with Isaac.

Leading the students on their summer Paris trip is season 1 fan-favorite Mr. Ajayi, joined by newcomer Mr. Farouk, who will be played by Nima Taleghani.
