Deadline reported that in the upcoming series, a brand-new set of Little Liars will find themselves tormented by an unknown antagonist and will be made to pay for the secret sin they and their parents committed two decades ago.

Bechtel will portray Karen, Millwood High's reigning queen of men and an antagonist to the Little Liars, as per Deadline. On the other hand, Johson will play Sheriff Beasley, the imperative patriarch of the Beasley family.

The series will be produced by Muckle Man Productions and Alloy in association with WBTV. Lisa Soper will direct the first two episodes. Aguirre-Sacasa will executive produce under his banner Muckle Man Productions. Alloy's Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo, as well as Michael Grassi and Caroline Baron, will also executive produce the series.

Calhoon Bring will serve as the co-executive producer. 'Pretty Little Liars', developed by I. Marlene King, came to an end in 2017 after seven seasons and over 150 episodes.

The teen thriller, which was based on Sara Shepard's books of the same name, revolves around the titular Liars, who are being tormented by a mysterious villain known as 'A'. The show inspired two spinoffs- 'Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists' and 'Ravenswood', however, both were cancelled after one season. (ANI)
