Apple TV Golf Comedy 'Stick' Adds Titanic Actor Billy Zane for Season 2

Apple TV continues to expand the cast of its golf comedy Stick as production moves forward on the second season. Actor Billy Zane, known for roles in Titanic and Twin Peaks, has joined the show in a recurring role. The series already built strong momentum during its first season, and the latest casting update signals that Apple plans to deepen the story as the show returns.

Stick stars Owen Wilson as Pryce Cahill, a former professional golfer whose career collapsed years earlier. Pryce now works at a sporting goods store in Indiana while dealing with the fallout from his failed marriage and stalled career. His life changes when he places his hopes on mentoring a talented but troubled teenage golfer named Santi. The show blends sports drama with personal relationships while focusing on a group of characters who slowly form a tight support system around the game of golf.

According to Deadline, Billy Zane will appear as part of the recurring cast for Season 2. The news arrived shortly after reports confirmed that Judy Greer and Timothy Olyphant received promotions to series regulars. Olyphant will continue his role as Clark Ross, Pryce’s rival and former partner, while Greer plays Pryce’s ex-wife Amber-Linn.

Season 2 expands the returning cast

Several actors from the first season will also return as the story continues. Marc Maron will again appear as Pryce’s longtime friend Mitts, Mariana Treviño returns as Santi’s mother Elena, and Lilli Kay continues her role as bartender turned caddy Zero. These characters helped shape the emotional core of the show during the first season.

The Season 1 finale already hinted at new conflicts ahead. Santi briefly considered joining Clark Ross instead of staying with Pryce, which opened the door for tension between mentor and student. At the same time, Pryce and Amber-Linn faced an emotional moment when they revisited their past relationship and the pain connected to the loss of their son.

Apple renewed Stick for a second season shortly after the first season wrapped its ten-episode run, which earned an 82 percent Tomatometer score. The show continues to position itself as a feel-good sports comedy about mentorship, second chances, and the complicated relationships that develop within a close-knit group of characters. Apple has not announced a premiere date for Season 2 yet.
