After his recovery, filming on the series resumed
Tale
A retired CIA agent is haunted by both the agency he once worked for and his own nightmares when a stranger suddenly visits him after nearly three decades. Production was halted in March 2020 due to government restrictions. During this time, Jeff Bridges was diagnosed with and subsequently treated for non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Bridges referred to this return as a return after a “long weekend” in a podcast in July 2022.

In 6 months, Jeff Bridges will be 73 years old. In fact, he is an old man. His character makes this grunting noise due to the effort of getting up in the morning, and you can also hear a very sporadic stream of urine in the middle of the night. Starting with Peter Bogdanovich’s groundbreaking “The Last Picture Show,” Bridges built an enviable career with numerous carefully crafted roles, each truly unique and most more memorable than the last.
In 4 months, John Lithgow will be 77
A few years ago he finally received his long-awaited Oscar for Best Actor for “Crazy Heart,” and last year we almost lost it to CoVID-19. But he’s back as a down-and-out former spy, and he’s perfectly suited to and in this latest complex role. An old man in the narrowest sense too. Is he the obvious villain of this story, or could he be the hero?
Don’t miss it
You can never be quite sure with a Lithgow character, and this one is no exception. Even the supporting roles from longtime pros like Amy Brenneman and Joel Grey are well written and, of course, superbly acted. But make no mistake: This miniseries belongs entirely to the one and only Jeff Bridges. And by extension, to all of us who remain his long-time fans more than half a century later. 9/10.
