HBO has added Minka Kelly, Dominic Fike and Demetrius ‘Lil Meech’ Flenory Jr. to the Season 2 cast of Euphoria, starring Zendaya and Hunter Schafer.

Created and written by Sam Levinson, the HBO drama follows Zendaya’s Rue Bennett, a drug addict fresh from rehab who’s struggling to make sense of her future. Her life changes dramatically when she meets Jules Vaughn (Schafer), a girl who recently moved to town following her parents’ divorce and like Rue is searching for where she belongs. They navigate the intense dramas of drugs, sex, identity, love and friendship in their small town. The Season 1 finale, which saw Rue and Jules part ways, was followed by two special episodes centering each of the friends.
