What you need to know about Russian Doll S2

Natasha Lyonne, Leslye Headland and Amy Poehler are executive producers for Russian Doll S2.

Key details of the plot
In its first season, Russian Doll follows Nadia (Lyonne) as she’s caught in a bizarre time loop that sends her back to her 36th birthday party. Season 2 is said to pick up where Season 1 left off, with Nadia investigating what happened and where she’ll go next. Season 1 of Russian Doll ended with a suicide attempt, so I think we can say it’s going to get darker from there, Lyonne teased on Instagram.
Anticipate a surprise ending
The trailer doesn’t just hint at what’s to come, it drops hints about how season two will take viewers by surprise. I am dying right now, Lyonne says in voiceover as her character, Nadia, relives her birthday party. We are all dying right now. What could possibly be more surprising than that? Oh, only the fact that she’s stuck in a time loop and keeps dying over and over again. That is pretty damn surprising!
Will Russian Doll have season 2?
While Netflix has yet to officially announce a second season of Russian Doll, there’s plenty of evidence that it will. The streaming giant has renewed almost every show it can: Daredevil, Orange Is The New Black, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Narcos, Iron Fist, and Jessica Jones are all coming back. That leaves only two with unknown fates: Sense8 and Russian Doll.
Why is it called Russian Doll?
Every episode of Russian Doll is titled after a different song by ABBA. This trailer teases season two’s theme (Season One was New York, New York) through a portion of Lay All Your Love on Me, which is played in its entirety during one scene in an upcoming episode. The series follows Nadia (Natasha Lyonne), who dies and relives her 36th birthday over and over again.
What does a Russian Doll tattoo mean?
On top of being a hilarious, comedy-drama series, Russian Doll is also one of Netflix’s most surprising shows when it comes to its audience. While viewers watch Nadia as she tries to survive dying over and over again on February 2nd (Valentine’s Day), they notice some very unique tattoos on Nadia’s arm.
What was the point of Russian Doll?
In season 1 of Russian Doll, Nadia finds herself reliving her 36th birthday over and over again. In season 2, she realizes she has a purpose on Earth—saving others from their personal hells. This discovery puts her at odds with God and everyone else around her as Nadia takes a journey through people’s memories to rescue them.
Its first season received four Primetime Emmy Award nominations
Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (Natasha Lyonne), Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series (Leslye Headland), and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series (Amy Poehler). Lyonne was also nominated for Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Television Series Musical or Comedy.
Natasha Lyonne as Nadia Vulvokov, a software engineer
The show centers on Nadia, who keeps dying and reliving her 36th birthday over and over. I’m not afraid to say it: This is one of those shows that defies description. And honestly, I think that’s a good thing for Russian Doll—there are so many ways in which people could interpret Nadia’s story.
Greta Lee as Maxine, Nadia’s friend
We’re excited for you to meet Maxine. Fun fact: Lee’s character on Russian Doll is named after Natasha Lyonne’s mother, Maxine. This is definitely an interesting bit of trivia! The actress and her character share a similar personality trait: She also loves food, as Maxine is described as an adorable porker. Of course, who wouldn’t love watching Nadezhda? In real life and in television. We hope to see a lot more of Lee in upcoming episodes.
Yul Vazquez as John Reyes
John Reyes is Nadia’s boyfriend and successful Wall Street investor. He’s warm, charming, and attentive—the perfect partner for someone with a rich social life. But underneath his exterior lies a man who is haunted by death; he feels as though he has already died once before and that every day is borrowed time.
Charlie Barnett as Alan Zaveri
Now that Alan’s past has caught up with him and things are starting to get a little bit too weird, he will begin to feel a sense of responsibility to helping Nadia unravel some of her memories. While there were many signs that Alan had been lying about his past, at its core, Russian Doll is about finding yourself in your 40s and learning how to make peace with yourself when you finally decide to stop running. We think Alan has probably been through enough and should be able to leave all that behind.
Elizabeth Ashley as Ruth Brenner
The matriarch of a Russian-Jewish family. She’s spent her life juggling love, loss, and family obligations with humor and grace. Now she’s trying to make peace with her choices while helping her kids navigate adulthood in their own way.
Kate Jennings Grant portrays a young Ruth
I think it’s going to be much more suspenseful and scary. I think it’s going to be a huge wild ride, but in true Natasha fashion I don’t know how much I can tell you about it…I am super excited for everybody to see it, but in true Russian doll style, I have no idea what happens! [Laughs] And neither does she!
