After Maggie tells her story to Danner and she tests Aniq to see if he’ll tell the truth about Brett’s innocence, Tiffany Haddish’s The Afterparty character reveals the true killer. She explains that The Afterparty's songwriting Yasper killed Xavier, as he snuck upstairs while Zoe and Chelsea went to check on Aniq, hid in the closet when Chelsea co...
While Yasper’s story in The Afterparty episode 3 made him an unlikely suspect when he explained he needed Xavier alive to complete their music collaboration, the finale reveals this to be a clever lie. After Yasper broke up his band with Xavier in high school because he thought pop was a fad, Xavier went on to have an undeniably successful music ca...
Aniq’s primary motivation in attending the Apple TV+ original show's reunion was to get a second chance at love with Zoe, who he nearly dated in high school before Brett swooped in. While Brett trying to get Zoe back in The Afterparty largely stood in the way of Aniq pursuing her, Zoe finally had a chat with Brett in which he realized he needed to ...
The Afterparty ends with Detective Danner proving she has the chops to solve high-profile murder cases, and even asking Aniq if he’d consider going into law enforcement. With Danner being set to go on her next case, it’s possible she’ll still call Aniq as a consultant on the next murder mystery puzzle. Apple TV+ has officially renewed The Afterpart...

- Xavier (Dave Franco) Obviously, you can’t have a murder mystery without a murder. Unfortunately, it’s Xavier who is the catalyst for the events of “The Afterparty.”
- Detective Danner (Tiffany Haddish) Leading the investigation on “The Afterparty” is Detective Danner, played by Tiffany Haddish. She’s not technically supposed to be running point on this case, but who’s going to stop her?
- Detective Culp (John Early) Of course, every lead detective needs an assistant. John Early fills that role in “The Afterparty” as Detective Culp. He’s very sassy, and very much doesn’t appreciate not being kept in the loop.
- Aniq (Sam Richardson) Aniq seems to be a nice guy, but unfortunately, he catapults himself to suspect number one pretty quickly. Sam Richardson plays the “adorakable” character, who really just wanted a second chance at dating his high school crush.

- Tiffany Haddish as Detective Danner. Returning to the scene in her second major case is Detective Danner, though she isn't officially a detective anymore.
- Zoë Chao as Zoe. Zoe was one of the leading characters (and also a suspect) in the first season of The Afterparty and is equally significant in the second season of the murder mystery as well.
- Sam Richardson as Aniq Adjaye. Among all the interesting, quirky characters of The Afterparty Season 1, Aniq Adjaye is unarguably the “adorkable” and memorable one, and not just because he is returning in the second season as well.
- Ken Jeong as Feng. Comedian, actor, writer, producer, and actual real-life doctor Ken Jeong stars as Feng, Grace and Zoe’s father, and the “desperate father-in-law”, who adds plenty to the comic relief in the grim situation, as seen in the trailer.
- Detective Danner (Tiffany Haddish) Danner arrives at the exotic hillside mansion of the victim, Xavier when his body turns up. Haddish gets to sit back and watch while she pieces together her investigation from these wild recaps from this diverse cast of characters.
- Aniq (Sam Richardson) A sweet and shy nerd in high school, Aniq is an unlikely suspect. His genre of choice is a good, old-fashioned, rom-com. He is absolutely desperate to clear his name.
- Brett (Ike Barinholtz) Brett seems to despise Xavier almost as much as his young daughter seems to adore him. His rivalry with Xavier, which seems to stem from high school, has carried over into adulthood.
- Yasper (Ben Schwartz) From the trailer, Yasper seems to think he is the star of a musical in his own mind. (Don’t we all?) But if you think murderers don’t exist in musicals, you’ve clearly never seen Sweeney Todd.
Feb 10, 2022 · Set in the aftermath of a high school reunion, The Afterparty begins with Xavier having been killed during the titular event at his mansion.
Oct 20, 2021 · As the name suggests, The Afterparty takes place following a high school reunion, during which one of the former classmates — Dave Franco’s character if the trailer is to be believed — dies...
