Posted by on

 


All you also-movers out there, Fellow Travelers is headed your way. The eight-part miniseries starring Matt Bomer is coming this fall.

Either Paramount+ or Showtime (there are conflicting sources) announced Thursday that the series will, like Billions and The Chi, debut early on the streamer's With Showtime plan on Friday, October 27, before its linear Showtime premiere on Sunday, October 29 at 9/8c. The series will also premiere on Paramount+ on October 27 in Canada and on October 28 in all the United Kingdom, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Australia, Latin America, South Korea, and Austria.

Fellow Travelers is described as a love story and political thriller based on Thomas Mallon’s novel, adapted by Homeland and Ray Donovan alum Ron Nyswaner. It follows the relationship between Bailey’s earnest, idealistic and optimistic religious man Tim Laughlin and Bomer’s charismatic avoider of emotional entanglements Hawkins “Hawk” Fuller, whose behind-the scenes career in politics brings great wealth and stability. Their romance begins just as Joseph McCarthy and Roy Cohn begin their anti-LGBTQ crusade.  Hawk, Tim, Marcus (played by Jelani Alladin), Lucy (Allison Williams), and Frankie (Noah J. Ricketts) cross paths in the ensuing 35 years, through the Vietnam War protests of the 1960s, the drug-fueled sexual revolution of the 1970s and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s, while still facing other issues in the world.

Allison Williams's credits include Get Out, Girls, and M3GAN while Jelani Alladin has appeared in Tick... Tick... Boom! and The Walking Dead: World Beyond and Noah J. Ricketts has appeared in American Gods. Bomer and Nyswaner also serve as executive producers with Robbie Rogers of All American and My Policeman and Dee Johnson. Daniel Minahan, who has worked on Ryan Murphy productions like Halston and American Crime Story: Versace executive produces while directing the first two episodes. Fellow Travelers is co-produced by Fremantle and Showtime. A date reveal teaser has been released, and can be watched below.
