Thomas Doherty (Tell Me Lies, Dandelion) is set for a major recurring role in the upcoming second season of Hulu’s hit political thriller Paradise, from creator Dan Fogelman and 20th Television.
No one would comment, but I hear that Doherty has an option to become a series regular if Paradise gets a third season. Like another prominent new Season 2 recurring player, Shailene Woodley, I hear Doherty’s arc is tied to Agent Xavier Collins’ (Sterling K. Brown) mission teed off at the end of the Season 1 finale where he leaves the bunker to look for survivors, including his wife. Doherty is believed to be playing Link, the leader of a biker gang.
Paradise’s well-reviewed first season is set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But the tranquility explodes when a shocking murder occurs, and a high-stakes investigation unfolds. Brown, James Marsden, Julianne Nicholson, Sarah Shahi, Nicole Brydon Bloom, Aliyah Mastin and Percy Daggs IV star in Season 1, executive produced by Fogelman, Brown, John Requa, Glenn Ficarra, John Hoberg, Jess Rosenthal and Steve Beers.
Paradise expands Doherty’s relationship with Hulu where he guest starred on High Fidelity before landing a major recurring role on Season 2 of Tell Me Lies. The Descendants and Gossip Girl star also recently had a lead role in the movie Dandelion. He is repped by Anonymous Content, Gersh, Olivia Bell Management and Peikoff Mahan Law.
