Now, EW can exclusively reveal the June 8 premiere date and first trailer for season 2 ofL.A.
JESSICA ALBA:We always felt in our gut that it was important to develop the other characters.

Michael Moriatis/Sony Pictures Television/Spectrum Originals
The first season was really an origin story and we had to set the stage and foundation.
But then, like Gab said, we got to lean in to what our instincts were.
We wanted to always incorporate all of that, but you just never know, right?

On the flip side, second seasons are often the best, because you’ve settled into a groove.
We werent as beholden to that and we could kind of go anywhere.
And just really pushing the limits on using all of Los Angeles as our playground.
Really making L.A. more of a specific character in the show, and just kind of letting loose.
Because we all had that confidence coming out of season 1.
A lot went down in season 1, especially at the end.
ALBA:We didnt end season 1 oneverything is tied up in a nice neat bow.
And we pick up with everything being kind of frayed and disconnected.
It just felt like a much more genuine place to start.
What is that Syd and McKenna relationship looking like?
UNION:More secrets.
Father-daughter relationships, husband-wife relationships, partner relationships.
You see a lot of partner swapping, like partner swingers this season.
Its not always Syd and McKenna for various reasons.
A lot of that, and it all comes to different heads throughout the season.
UNION:Who killed Jen is really Syds whole arc for the season.
Finding out who Jen is, who killed Jen, why they killed Jen.
The trailer also suggests some more bumps along the road for McKenna.
That was fun to do and fun to play.
It just added another layer of depth.
Gabrielle, did you get a chance to seeBad Boys for Life?
No, I actually didnt get to.
But I was sort of keeping track on social media and seeing if anyone missed Syd.
So I wanted to give you the chance right now to share Syds side of the story.
Because theres always two sides to any breakup.
Yeah, his, mine, and the truth that lies somewhere out there.
