Normal People stars Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal excite fans



Normal People co-stars Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal excited fans on Tuesday as they teased ‘news to share’ in a social media post.

The 26-year-old British actress and 28-year-old Irish actor appeared side-by-side in a photo shared to Daisy’s Instagram Story.

In the selfie, the pair held up peace signs while wearing matching smiles as Daisy wrote, ‘We’ve got some news to share!!’ and added, ‘Watch this space.’

Element Pictures, the production company that backed their 2020 Hulu series Normal People, also shared the photo.

Now, fans believe the two stars are set to soon announce a season two of the show.

One Normal People watcher reacted on the social media app X: ‘WHAT?!? Normal People season 2? Daisy and Paul you’re playing with my emotions and I’m not here for it!!!’ 

Another joined in, ‘if they announce normal people season 2 i might cry.’

And someone else mused, ‘if the [peace] signs they are making are for season 2 of Normal People im gonna scream.’

The show, which is based on Sally Rooney’s best-selling second novel, frames Marianne (played by Daisy) as a hugely intelligent yet misunderstood social outcast, while Connell (played by Paul) is the school football star and widely popular among his peers.

Marianne and Connell’s link is due to the fact that his mother works as a cleaner at her family’s mansion, and a strange and indelible connection grows between them.

However, Connell is desperate to keep their blossoming relationship under wraps due to Marianne’s lower social standing at school.

The tables turn as they each go on to attend Trinity College in Dublin, where Marianne is well-liked for her quirky ways and thoughtful insights.

Meanwhile, Connell struggles to find a connection with anyone other than Marianne.

Their relationship is thwarted by tricky situations, other romances and their personal demons.

Earlier this year, Mescal said the sudden stardom brought on by the show forced him to develop ‘coping mechanisms’ in a bid to protect his mental health.

Speaking on The Louis Theroux Podcast, Paul revealed: ‘To go from [being] totally anonymous to not anonymous is kind of the biggest jump.

‘You develop your own set of rules, but you develop a kind of coping mechanism from that junction and the rest is hopefully gonna stay nice and level.’
