Elsbeth Season 2 has a killer guest star for the premiere in Nathan Lane. The Tony winner takes his commitment to the theater to campy heights as Carrie Preston‘s Elsbeth Tascioni suspects him of offing people with bad theater etiquette. His character is teased in the trailer below, which also reveals Vanessa Williams, Pamela Adlon, Rob Riggle, and Brittany O’Grady as additional guest stars for the season at large. The Nanny alum Daniel Davis is also a featured guest star in the premiere gallery below, and Aisha Tyler directs one episode this season.

The official premiere description from CBS sheds more light on Lane’s guest appearance. The description for the episode, titled, “Subscription to Murder,” reads: “When a womanizing finance executive is found stabbed to death after a night at the opera, Elsbeth suspects an obsessed opera lover (Nathan Lane) was driven to murder because of a ringing cell phone. Meanwhile, Elsbeth, Captain Wagner and Kaya must adjust to changes in the precinct as the consequences of Noonan’s [Fredric Lehne] wrongdoing continue to loom.”
