‘The Sinner’ Renewed For Season 3 By USA With Matt Bomer Starring
USA Network has picked up a third season of its thriller drama series The Sinner, from executive producer Jessica Biel and Universal Content Productions.
Matt Bomer has been tapped as a new lead opposite Bill Pullman who is set to return, reprising his role as Detective Harry Ambrose.
This marks Bomer’s return to USA where he established himself as a leading man on the network’s White Collar.
The Sinner‘s third installment follows Detective Harry Ambrose (Pullman) as he begins a routine investigation of a tragic car accident on the outskirts of Dorchester, in upstate New York. Ambrose uncovers a hidden crime that pulls him into the most dangerous and disturbing case of his career.
Bomer will play Jamie, an upstanding Dorchester resident and expectant father who looks to Ambrose for support in the wake of the accident.
Derek Simonds returns for season 3 as executive producer and showrunner, along with Biel and Michelle Purple, who executive produce through their Iron Ocean banner, and Charlie Gogolak. Willie Reale also will serve as executive producer. Adam Bernstein (Fargo, Breaking Bad) is set to direct the first two episodes and will also executive produce.
The first installment of The Sinner earned multiple award nominations including an Emmy nomination (for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited Series or Movie for Jessica Biel), two Golden Globe nominations (for Best Television Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television and Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for Jessica Biel), and two Critics’ Choice Award nominations (for Best Actor in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series, and Best Actress in a Movie Made for TV or Limited Series). The Sinners’ second installment received a SAG nomination (for Male Actor in a Miniseries or TV Movie for Bill Pullman) and a Critics’ Choice Award nomination (for Best Actress in a Movie/Miniseries for Carrie Coon).
Bomer also is set for a lead role in DC Universe’s upcoming live-action drama Doom Patrol for the DC Universe digital platform. An Emmy nominee and Golden Globe winner for the HBO movie The Normal Heart, Bomer also starred on the Amazon series The Last Tycoon. He previously starred in FX’s American Horror Story: Hotel.
