"This Is Us" creator Dan Fogelman returns for another twisty drama about* a secret service agent investigating the death of a president he was sworn to protect. (*Twist! It's about so much more!)

As an executive producer and star of the new Hulu series “Paradise,” Sterling ... Brown is a Secret Service agent to James Marsden’s president of the United States. A shocking murder is ...

Sterling K. Brown says he was issued an arrest warrant at 19 after “little run-in with the law.” During a Good Morning America interview on Tuesday (Jan. 28), Brown spoke candidly about his teenage years.

Paradise was released on Hulu on January 28, 2025, and has been garnering praise from both critics and viewers.

Paradise comes from Dan Fogelman, one of the creators of This Is Us (his frequent collaborator Glenn Ficarra also serves as executive producer). This Is Us excelled at pulling emotional heartstrings while seamlessly weaving together past and present storylines. Paradise does the same, only this time, within a sci-fi mystery.

When you think of actors in Hollywood who have a pretty pristine image and clean reputation, Sterling K. Brown is near the top of the list. However, according to a recent interview, that reputation was almost tarnished due to a small incident when he was a teenager.

Paradise is a different variety of Fogelman twist. It has just as much of a topsy-turvy rug-pulled-out-from-under-you impact, but it has a different kind of relationship to the broader show and puts Paradise into an increasingly crowded collection of television shows all meditating on the same general idea.

Paradise stars Brown as Xavier Collins, the lead secret service agent assigned to the President of the United States, Cal Bradford ( James Marsden ). Xavier reports for work in the first episode to discover that the president is dead and an important tablet is missing from the commander-in-chief's personal safe.

The first episode of Hulu ’s new TV show Paradise ends with a moody cover of Phil Collins’ “Another Day in Paradise,” by JOYNER. However, things could have gone in a different direction for the twisty political thriller, if Guns N’ Roses had gotten on board.

Sterling K. Brown had a brief run-in with the law, thanks to a miscommunication with his old pal, Donk: 'Ya boy had warrants at 19. That's not a good feeling.'

Giancarlo Esposito, Ken Marino, Susan Kelechi Watson, and Kylie Minogue co-star in the series created by "Scandal" alum Paul William Davies. Shonda Rhimes is getting into the “Only Murders in the Building” and “Knives Out” whodunnit game with her latest series “ The Residence .”
