Will Twisted Metal viewers ever learn the real name of Quiet, the badass car thief played by Stephanie Beatriz? Yes, but not just yet.
Beatriz and her costars Anthony Mackie, Joe Seanoa, and Anthony Carrigan joined showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith at Entertainment Weekly‘s Comic-Con video suite Friday to discuss the show and its second season, which launches July 31 on Peacock.
Quiet goes by many names, including Lil’ Bunny, Silent But Not Very Deadly, and Mute, but Smith confirms there’s a plan in place for revealing that character’s true name.
“Not this season,” he said. “But I have plans for that whole idea. I do, but I don’t want to say anything. I have a whole thing around the name. There’s a whole thing.”
The cast and creator hosted a sneak peek at the upcoming Twisted Metal season Thursday at Comic-Con, while Peacock will now screen the first two episodes days in advance on Saturday for those around the San Diego convention.
In season 2, John Doe (Mackie) and Quiet enter the Twisted Metal tournament, a sinister demolition derby hosted by a mysterious man known as Calypso (Carrigan). As they try to survive, things get complicated for John when he reunites with his long-lost sister, the vigilante Dollface (Tiana Okoye).

Carrigan, who can currently be seen on the big screen playing Metamorpho in Superman, teases his character. “He’s extra,” the actor says. “He’s got a lot going on. One thing I love about him is he’s just insane, but he’s so giddy, he’s so excited about the tournaments. He’s terrifying, too, because you don’t know what he has planned in store for them. That and the wig.”
