The trailer for the season reveals Erin Moriarty will appear in Season 2 as Annie January / Starlight, as she has a task for Sinclair’s Marie Moreau. The Boys character Black Noir will appear in some capacity, as will Chance Crawford’s Kevin Moskowitz / The Deep.
Thomas, who recurred in Season 1 as Polarity, is a series regular in Season 2.

The character’s death will be off-screen heading into Season 2 and will be a major component in the new season. The trailer also showcases the casting of Ethan Slater in the recurring role of Thomas Godolkin in the new season.
