Katherine Heigl and Sarah Chalke star in Firefly Lane, which recently released a second season on Netflix. Because the drama series jumps around in time from 1970 to the present day, showrunners cast younger actors to play the childhood versions of Tully (Heigl) and Kate (Chalke). Meet Roan Curtis and Ali Skovbye, who play the young versions of Kate and Tully in Firefly Lane, plus find out where you might have seen them before their roles in the popular Netflix series.

‘Firefly Lane’ Season 2 will explain more about Tully and Kate’s friendship
Like the first season, season 2 of Firefly Lane will jump around in time. We’ll learn more about how Tully and Kate’s friendship evolved after Tully moves in with her grandmother in the 1970s, plus we’ll also get to see more from their 1980s timeline. Of course, season 2 will also dive into the divide between Tully and Kate and hopefully explain why Kate was so mad at her best friend at the end of the first season.
Season 2 of Firefly Lane released the first nine episodes on Dec. 2, 2022. The 16-episode season will conclude sometime in 2023 when the remaining seven episodes are released. Stay tuned to Showbiz Cheat Sheet for updates on when to tune in to the second half of Firefly Lane Season 2.
