Source [5]: Variety - Mentions Nathalie Emmanuel reprises her role in Season 2. (Note: This source is actually about "Die Hart 2" but contains a snippet about Nathalie Emmanuel in "The Afterparty"). Correction: Looking closely at Source [5], it's a headline for "Kevin Hart Die Hart 2" but the text says "Nathalie Emmanuel will reprise her role in Season 2" and then discusses "Die Hart 2". Wait, let me re-read. Source [5] text: "new cast, Nathalie Emmanuel will reprise her role in Season 2. Eric Appel returns to direct with Tripper Clancy returning as writer. Production of “Die Hart 2: Die Harter” has begun in Atlanta. The series will... he has appeared in “The Afterparty”...". This source is messy/confusingly formatted in the prompt, but I must treat it as a source. It says Nathalie Emmanuel will reprise her role in Season 2.
