Raquel Laguna/ SUCOPRESS. Premiering exclusively on Prime Video on August 7, Season 2 of No One Will Miss Us reunites audiences with the beloved group of misfit teenagers whose unlikely homework business made them the most unexpected players in their high school's underground economy. To celebrate the new season, we caught up with Nicolás Haza, Virgilio Delgado, Edu Maruri, and Camila Calón during LALIFF, where they shared insights into their characters' emotional journeys, the challenges ahead in Season 2, and what fans can expect from the series' highly anticipated return. Set in the 1990s, the coming-of-age series follows a group of outsiders who turn their academic talents into an illegal homework-selling operation, earning popularity and money while trying to survive the challenges of adolescence. In Season 2, the four friends enter their senior year still mourning the loss of Memo. While they continue to rely on one another and their thriving business, a new rival threatens their place at the top, just as the uncertainty of life after high school begins to loom larger than ever.

00:00Ok, congrats on this second season. Tell me what can the fans expect from the new episodes?
00:07They can still be looking for this nostalgia that you felt in the first season.
00:13It's all the time there because we are again in the 90s and you can expect this group friendship that
00:21we created over and over in the season.
00:24You're going to see it a lot. You're going to love it.
00:26How cool was going back to the 90s?
00:30It was amazing. When you work in fiction you always have that opportunity to travel in time, to travel to
00:38different places but also different times in history.
00:44I grew up in Mexico City so it was like traveling back in time in a city you grew up
00:48in but now a couple of decades before and it was amazing.
00:52And tell me each of you about your characters. How are they going to evolve in this new season?
00:59For Diego I had a really good time telling his story this season because there's an arc.
01:07As we know he didn't end things properly in the first season so he's making up for it and it
01:13was very rich and exciting as an actor to play a different side of Diego that we saw in the
01:20first season.
01:21And kind of like show a little bit of his heart. Marifere still hates me as you can tell.
01:27But there's hope. There's hope. I keep trying and I have hope.
01:34Marifere is learning how to live with grief because of losing her friend and I think she keeps trying to
01:47find who she really is and who she wants to be when she grows up.
01:56Yeah. How important is it for you guys to present this second season at De La Leaf in the heart
02:03of Hollywood?
02:04It's very important. I think it's a reflection of how far the project has gone, how far it's connected.
02:12It's not even just Mexico anymore and it's very specific to Mexico because it's Mexico City in the 90s.
02:19But like Camila said earlier, they're universal stories which connect with everyone because friendship is universal, because grief is universal,
02:30because identity is universal.
02:34So we're really happy that this is connecting in a lot of places including right here in the US.
02:40Do you think platforms like Prime Video give you guys as artists and actors more opportunities?
02:49I think so. This is an example of that. I think Prime Video took us here, brought us here.
02:55We met doing the show and I don't think we ever expected to have a screening in Hollywood.
03:01And I think that's thanks to Prime Video and La Leaf. So thank you very much for bringing us here.
03:06It's a dream come true.
03:07And tell me about your characters again. What have you learned from your characters?
03:13I think it's important to let go sometimes because sometimes you're so attached to things that you get blurry and
03:23don't see that there is a way out.
03:25So sometimes it's better to let go and stop harming yourself.
03:30From the first season, I always carry with me the concept of having to keep going without letting go necessarily
03:38of the pain.
03:39Like the pain kind of comes with you, you know, and you still have to keep going.
03:43But that's part of life. And then the second season, there's a lot of like the truth will set you
03:50free kind of thing with Alex.
03:52And yeah, I think I think the line goes kind of there.
03:58I think that Mary Fair thinks out of the box. So and she doesn't follow the path that she's supposed
04:10to follow.
04:11And that's important, I think.
04:15And with Diego, I think he he channels a lot of that broken masculinity from the 90s and being afraid
04:24of showing emotions.
04:27And what I learned from him is that it's important to to reach out and look for help whenever you
04:34need it.
04:34You know, everything.
