The Houston rapper will reprise her role as Denise, the love interest of Daniel Radcliffe’s character, Arthur Tobin.

Megan Thee Stallion will return to NBC’s “The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins” during season 2, reprising her role as Denise opposite Daniel Radcliffe. TheGrio reported her original casting in February and spoke with the cast in October about the comedy’s second season.

The Houston rapper shared the news on Instagram on Nov.11. In a video, she appears in a red dress while lip-syncing to her “Thin Ice” freestyle, with Radcliffe briefly popping into the frame. “DENISE IS BACK,” she wrote, adding that the show airs Mondays on NBC and streams the next day on Peacock.

Denise, a recently divorced mother and mail carrier, struck up a flirtation with Arthur Tobin, Radcliffe’s documentary filmmaker, in Season 1. She first appeared in the March 16 episode “You May Hug Your Hero.” In that episode, Arthur tries to impress Denise while filming Reggie’s comeback story.

The show stars Tracy Morgan as Reggie Dinkins, a former NFL player trying to rebuild his public image after a gambling scandal. Arthur documents the comeback effort, with Reggie’s family and friends complicating the process. The cast also includes Erika Alexander, Precious Way, Bobby Moynihan and Jalyn Hall.

Morgan praised Megan’s work on the comedy during a Feb. 23 appearance on “TODAY with Jenna & Sheinelle,” calling her “down to earth” and “grounded.” The rapper has also appeared in “P-Valley” and “She-Hulk: Attorney at Law,” as well as the films “Dicks: The Musical” and “Mean Girls.” In March, she made her Broadway debut in “Moulin Rouge! The Musical,” becoming the first female-identifying performer to portray Zidler.

Season 2 premiered Nov. 2 and continues Mondays at 8:30 p.m. Eastern on NBC, with episodes streaming on Peacock the next day. NBC has yet to announce when the finale featuring Megan Thee Stallion will air or reveal what happens next between Denise and Arthur.
