Domhnall Gleeson (About Time, Ex Machina, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker) is among the actors who have joined the cast of the limited thriller series titled The Patient at FX. Gleeson is joined by Linda Emond (The Big Sick), Laura Niemi (This is Us), and Andrew Leeds (A Million Little Things) have also joined the show’s cast. They join Steve Carell (The Office, The Morning Show), who will star in the series.
“In the half-hour series, a psychotherapist (Carell) finds himself held prisoner by a serial killer (Gleeson) with an unusual request: curb his homicidal urges. But unwinding the mind of this man while also dealing with the waves of his own repressed troubles creates a journey perhaps as treacherous as his captivity.”
Chris Long will executive produce and will also direct the first two episodes. Kevin Bray and Gwyneth Horder-Payton will also direct episodes of the 10-episode series.
I am excited about this series. I have enjoyed Carell in his more serious roles, and Gleeson is a great actor. Will you tune in to check out The Patient?
