I had the great pleasure of catching up with Otmara Marrero at the Sony Studio Day, part of the Summer TCA. We talked about the roller coaster experiences of the characters in season one and what we’ll expect to see in the new season of StartUp. I really enjoyed my conversation with Otmara and you can listen in by clicking the audio box.

Returning in season two are series’ stars Adam Brody (series producer), Martin Freeman, Edi Gathegi, and Otmara Marrero. In addition, Ron Perlman (series producer) joins them this season as Wes Chandler, a multi-millionaire businessman, and Addison Timlin (Californication) will portray Perlman’s daughter Mara.
The plot: the one-hour original drama picks up on the streets of Miami following the takeover of GenCoin, an unregulated global cryptocurrency. With their startup now in the hands of the Russian Mob, our unlikely trio, Izzy Morales (Marrero), Ronald Dacey (Gathegi), and Nick Talman (Brody), reinvest in their partnership and launch an exciting new endeavor, a darknet prototype called ArakNet. But as their decentralized network begins to grow, so too does the peril, the corruption, and the moral turpitude.
StartUp, the 10-episode season streams free beginning September 28 on Crackle.
