The Sinner Season 2 Swaps Jessica Biel for... Carrie Coon!?

Carrie Coon essentially has the world at her feet after her award-winning performances in two acclaimed 2017 shows, The Leftovers and Fargo. And for a follow up to those, she'll next be starring in... The Sinner?

Yep, Coon will take over for Jessica Biel as the female lead on the USA series, according to The Hollywood Reporter, after Biel starred in Season 1. Biel will stay on as an executive producer, though.

Season 2 of the series will shift its focus over to Bill Pullman's character Detective Ambrose as he heads back to his small hometown to investigates the murder of a couple at the hands of their 11-year-old son. Coon will play Vera, "a formidable, mysterious woman who struggles between upholding the ideals of the community she leads and fulfilling her own desires."

So It Turns Out The Sinner Had a Happy(ish) Ending

The Sinner was originally planned as a limited series, but it became the network's biggest hit of the year, so voila! Season 2, here we come.

Season 2 of The Sinner is set to premiere in August 2018.
