Deadline reports that Emmy winner Holland Taylor will join the cast of the Netflix "To All The Boys I've Loved Before" sequel.

Madeleine Arthur will also reprise her role as Christine in the film, and Sarayu Blue joins the cast.

Stars Lana Candor and Noah Centineo are returning for the sequel, along with Anna Cathcart, Janel Parrish, and John Corbett. It was previously announced that Jordan Fisher and Ross Butler will join the sequel.

Based on the bestselling book trilogy by Jenny Han, the original film debuted last year and was a huge success for Netflix.

The series centers on Lara Jean (Condor), who writes love letters to the five boys she's ever loved and keeps them locked away in a hatbox until the day her letters are mailed, upending her real-life love life.

Taylor took Broadway by storm as writer and star of ANN, a one-woman show about the inspiring Texas Governor Ann Richards, which resulted in rave reviews, a Tony Award nomination for Best Actress, Drama Desk and Drama League nominations, and the Outer Circle Critics award for Best Solo Performance. The show also played the Zach Theatre in Austin, Texas, where Holland reprised and filmed the full Lincoln Center Theater production, bringing ANN home to Texas.

Following her Broadway run in ANN, Taylor appeared in a movie titled Kepler's Dream, an inspiring film for a young audience, and in Pulitzer prize winner David Lindsay-Abaire's dark comedy Ripcord at the Manhattan Theatre Club. Taylor was last seen on Broadway in the star-studded revival of The Front Page, opposite Nathan Lane, John Slattery, Robert Morse, John Goodman and other luminaries. Over the years in Los Angeles, she has performed on stage in Kindertransport, and played opposite Christopher Lloyd in Yasmina Reza's The Unexpected Man at the Geffen. She has given narrations for the Los Angeles Philharmonic with Essa-Pekka Salonen and John Adams, and narrated the Harry Potter Suite for John Williams at the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.

Taylor has worked extensively in film and television, appearing in Romancing the Stone, Jewel of the Nile, To Die For, Next Stop Wonderland, One Fine Day, George of the Jungle, The Truman Show, Happy Accidents, Spy Kids (2 & 3), Keeping the Faith, Legally Blonde, and Baby Mama, with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. On television, Holland has been nominated for the Emmy seven times, winning Best Supporting Actress in a Drama for the sexy, brilliant Judge Roberta Kittlesonon The Practice. Among her numerous series starring roles: The Powers that Be, Norman Lear's short-lived but highly acclaimed political satire, Bosom Buddies, with Tom Hanks, and, of course, the juggernaut, Two and a Half Men, with her dear boys, Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer and number 3 son, Ashton Kutcher.

Her current project is Mr. Mercedes, a limited TV series for Audience Network, starring the great Irish actor Brenden Gleeson. It is written by Executive Producer David Kelley, run by director Jack Bender, and based on a trilogy of novels by Stephen King.
