‘Paradise’ Creator On Finale & When To Expect Season 2 Of Hulu Drama Starring Sterling K. Brown

deadline.com:

SPOILER ALERT! This story contains details from the season one finale of Paradise on Hulu. Dan Fogelman’s political thriller starring Sterling K.

Brown wrapped its eight-episode first season March 4 with some much-needed answers to several burning questions. But it also promised more mysteries to come in season 2, like how Julianne Nicholson‘s character may not be the show’s only villain.

Here, creator Dan Fogelman talks about the origin of that episode title, why we felt confident about writing a cliffhanger for season one before he had a renewal from the streamer, and what to expect when season 2 drops sometime in 2026. DEADLINE I feel like the author of the Peter Lawford book, The Man Who Kept the Secrets, is going to owe you a debt of gratitude for mentioning it.

Where’d that come from? DAN FOGELMAN We always knew the number that Cal [James Marsden] put on the cigarette was going to be a Dewey Decimal number for a book that would be stuffed with instructions for Xavier [Brown].
