Amazon’s The Summer I Turned Pretty adds Kyra Sedgwick and Elsie Fisher to its Season 2 cast in recurring roles. Details regarding their characters are under wraps.

The Jenny Han series, based on her novel of the same name, is a multigenerational drama that hinges on a love triangle between one girl and two brothers, the ever-evolving relationship between mothers and their children, and the enduring power of strong female friendships. It is a coming-of-age story about first love, first heartbreak, and the magic of that one perfect summer.
