Mariette was originally played by actress Sabrina Bartlett but she won't be returning for the new series.
Instead, relative newcomer actress Joelle Rae is taking over the role, having previously appeared in Emmerdale and Netflix's Get Even.
When asked about changing actresses, Scanlan commented: "It's all gone very well.
"I think it'll be pretty seamless actually," she added, giving little away regarding what Rae is going to bring to the table.
Mariette and Charley (Tok Stephen) got married at the end of season one after their ongoing will-they, won't-they storyline.
They left the village to go travelling around Europe for their honeymoon and are arriving back home when series two begins.
But how have things in the village changed since they've been away and how are they going to take life as a married couple?
The Larkins season 2 premieres on Sunday, October 16, at 8pm on ITV.
