Matthew Rhys Joins Claire Danes in Netflix's Mystery Thriller Project THE BEAST IN ME
Matthew Rhys (The Americans, Perry Mason) has joined Claire Danes in Netflix‘s mystery thriller limited series, The Beast in Me, which is created, written and executive-produced by Gabe Rotter.
In The Beast In Me, “since the tragic death of her young son, acclaimed author Aggie Wiggs (Danes) has receded from public life, unable to write, a ghost of her former self.
“But she finds an unlikely subject for a new book when the house next door is bought by Nile Jarvis (Rhys), a famed and formidable real estate mogul who was once the prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance.
“At once horrified and fascinated by this man, Aggie finds herself compulsively hunting for the truth – chasing his demons while fleeing her own – in a game of cat and mouse that might turn deadly.”
The series is executive produced by showrunner Howard Gordon (Homeland, 24, The X-Files), director Antonio Campos, writer Daniel Pearle (American Crime Story) alongside Conan O’Brien, Jeff Ross, David Kissinger, and Jodie Foster.
Rhys is a great actor and he is next set to appear as the legendary comedian George Carlin in director Jason Reitman’s Saturday Night.
