Jessica Williams Joins 'Love Life' Season 2 with William Jackson Harper!

The second season of the HBO Max series Love Life will feature an entirely new cast and more stars have been announced!

We already knew that The Good Place‘s William Jackson Harper will be replacing Anna Kendrick as the main focus of the season and now it’s been announced that Jessica Williams will play his love interest.

William plays “Marcus Watkins as as he comes out of a years-long relationship with the woman he thought was going to be his person. The rug pulled out from under him, he is plunged back into the search for the romantic fulfillment that he thought he had already found.”

Deadline reports that Jessica will play “Mia Hines, the beautiful, intelligent and somewhat unknowable object of Marcus’s affection. After forming a connection early in the season, she challenges Marcus’s ideas about himself and how he moves through the world.”

Jessica is best known for her work in 2 Dope Queens and Booksmart.

Also joining the cast is Chris “Comedian CP” Powell as “the charming and gregarious Yogi, who is committed to his girlfriend and two children, but lives vicariously through Marcus’s exploits, offering unsolicited advice.”

Anna Kendrick and some other actors from season two will appear occasionally in season two.

The trailer for Demi Moore‘s new movie Corporate Animals has been released!

The 56-year-old actress stars in the new horror-comedy, which received rave reviews at its debut at Sundance.

In the film, Demi “plays Lucy, the delusional (OK, terrible) CEO of a struggling startup aimed at millennials. In her infinite wisdom, she leads her staff, including her long-suffering assistants Jess (Jessica Williams) and Freddie (Karan Soni), on a team-building retreat in the caves of New Mexico, led by an overeager guide (Ed Helms). When disaster strikes and the food runs out, mandatory office bonding becomes a lot more … appetizing,” Deadline reports.

The film also stars Isiah Whitlock Jr, Dan Bakkedahl, Calum Worthy, Nasim Pedrad, and Martha Kelly.

Demi recently revealed that a huge pop star also makes a cameo in the movie!

Corporate Animals hits theaters on September 20th.
