Accused season 2 cast list: Here's the full cast for the second season of the FOX crime drama

As a die-hard fan of gripping anthology dramas, I can hardly contain my excitement for the second season of Accused! The sheer star power packed into this upcoming season is enough to make any TV enthusiast swoon. From Emmy winner Michael Chiklis and real-life power couple William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman, to Oscar winner Mercedes Ruehl, Cobie Smulders, Ken Jeong, and Sonequa Martin-Green – just to name a few!


At last, we’ve unveiled the full lineup for the actors in Accused season 2. Let’s take a peek at the talented individuals gracing the screens of the second season of this popular FOX series!

Starting in 2023, the British show titled “Accused” made its debut on FOX and swiftly gained popularity. This anthology series begins by presenting a character standing trial, followed by flashbacks that reveal their journey leading up to this moment. The narratives are distinct, as the crimes portrayed aren’t always what viewers anticipate, and not every story concludes happily.

The show did well in the ratings and is set for a second season. It was delayed due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes, with FOX deciding to hold it off until this fall. As with season 1, each episode features a brand new guest cast with a new storyline. 

Michael Chiklis, who took home an Emmy and appeared in the first episode, is set to rejoin the cast for Season 2, but this time he’ll take on a new role. Additionally, he’s slated to direct Episode 7. Notable stars joining him include William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman, who are married in real life, as well as Mercedes Ruehl, Cobie Smulders, Ken Jeong, Sonequa Martin-Green, and Mike Colter. According to Deadline, these actors will appear in the season finale.

Here’s a full run-down of who will appear this season!
