Hulu‘s latest series is the true crime drama, Candy, which depicts Texas wife Candy Montgomery in 1980 who brutally murdered her friend Betty Gore, after Candy had an affair with Betty’s husband. The series will premiere May 9th, and stars Jessica Biel, Timothy Simons, Melanie Lynskey, Pablo Schreiber and Raúl Esparza.
We were joined on the Popternative show by Pablo Schreiber and Timothy Simons to discuss their roles. Pablo plays Allan Gore, the husband of Betty Gore (Melanie Lynskey), and Timothy plays Pat Montgomery, the husband of Candy Montgomery (played by Jessica Biel).
About Candy
Candy Montgomery is a 1980 housewife and mother who did everything right—good husband, two kids, nice house, even the careful planning and execution of transgressions—but when the pressure of conformity builds within her, her actions scream for just a bit of freedom. With deadly results.
Three-time Emmy nominee Robin Veith (Mad Men, The Act) wrote the pilot script and executive produces. Nick Antosca (The Act, Brand New Cherry Flavor) serve as executive producer under his banner Eat the Cat along with Alex Hedlund. Jessica Biel and Michelle Purple serve as executive producers for Iron Ocean. Michael Uppendahl (Fargo, American Crime Story: Impeachment) directed the pilot and executive produced.
Watch our interview with Pablo Schreiber and Timothy Simons below.
Candy premieres May 9th on Hulu, with the remaining four episodes dropping every day following the premiere, with the finale on Friday, May 13.
