As we reported time round Cruel Summer is set in 1999, where a small-town computer genius Megan resents the arrival of outgoing and mysterious foreign exchange student Isabella. Little does she know, her life will change by the Summer of 2000. In the Summer of 1999, Isabella grows closer to Luke, struggling to connect with Megan, who later becomes her best friend, until all hell breaks loose. We spoke to Lexi and Sadie on whether they knew about all the show’s twists and turns and they were just as unaware as us and didn’t find out ‘whodunnit’ until the end.
The show has always seamlessly transitioned from different times to show a series of events. That same methodology came into season 2 where we learned the progression of events through the late 90s to the year 2000 and why the characters ended up where they are. We touched on how filming these different times was and the experience of going back to the best era the late 90s and the 2000s!
