🎮Twisted Metal Season 2 (2025) on Peacock: Cast, Plot, Release Date & Why the Chaos Returns This July

Twisted Metal Season 2: The Chaos Crashes Back This July on Peacock

“You can’t outrun the past when it’s driving a death machine.” Buckle up—Twisted Metal is back for round two, and this time, it’s not just a joyride through the wasteland… It’s full-on war. Premiering July 31, 2025, on Peacock, Twisted Metal Season 2 cranks the carnage, the comedy, and the chaos up to eleven in the most explosive tournament of the year.

🚗 A Tournament of Terror: What Season 2 Is About

After barely surviving the wreckage of Season 1, John Doe (Anthony Mackie) and Quiet (Stephanie Beatriz) are thrust into the heart of the Twisted Metal tournament—a deadly demolition derby run by the mysterious and maniacal Calypso (played by Anthony Carrigan of Barry fame).

What’s at stake? More than just life and limb. As twisted foes—both new and familiar—rev up their engines, John must also confront his past, especially when he’s reunited with his long-lost sister, the masked vigilante Dollface (Tiana Okoye). And of course, no Twisted Metal showdown would be complete without the iconic Sweet Tooth, the psychotic killer clown (Joe Seanoa with voice by Will Arnett) and his ice cream truck of doom.

🎮 From Game to Screen: A Fan-Favorite Reinvented

Based on the legendary Sony PlayStation video game franchise, Twisted Metal combines high-octane action with dark humor in a post-apocalyptic setting. Developed by Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Michael Jonathan Smith (who also serves as showrunner), the series retains its roots in vehicular madness while expanding the mythos with compelling characters and brutal stakes.

👥 Who's Behind the Wheel This Season?

Alongside Mackie, Beatriz, Seanoa, and Arnett, the Season 2 cast shifts into overdrive with:

• Anthony Carrigan as Calypso

• Tiana Okoye as Dollface

• Richard de Klerk as Mr. Grimm

• Saylor Bell Curda as Mayhem

• Michael James Shaw as Axel

• Lisa Gilroy as Vermin

• Patty Guggenheim as Raven

• And returning favorites like Neve Campbell (Raven), Thomas Haden Church (Agent Stone), and more.

These characters aren’t just Easter eggs for longtime fans—they’re dangerous, unpredictable drivers with explosive backstories that collide in the tournament arena.

🔥 What to Expect in Season 2

• More twisted vehicles and insane weaponized battles

• A deeper dive into Calypso’s true motives

• Emotional confrontations, including John’s past with Dollface

• Major cameos and fan-favorite characters from the game’s lore

• And, of course, Sweet Tooth unleashed like never before

This season is longer, louder, and bloodier, with 12 episodes (up from 10 in Season 1), giving even more room to explore the deranged universe of Twisted Metal.

📺 Catch Up Now

Season 1 is streaming in full on Peacock, so if you missed John and Quiet’s bullet-ridden journey across a broken America—or if you just want to rewatch that chainsaw ballet featuring Sweet Tooth—now’s the time to binge before the tournament begins.
