The cast and creatives behind Party Down have been talking about a revival exactly as long as its fans have: “literally from the moment we got canceled in 2010,” says Adam Scott. Today, VF talks to Scott about returning for the new season that finally hits this week. It’s not lost on the actor that the cast of a show about wanting to make it big has, largely, made it big in the ensuing years. “When we started, that was part of why we all connected so directly with it,” he says. “We all sort of had our faces pressed up against the glass of show business, feeling like this was just out of reach, and maybe always would be.” Being back on set with his now successful castmates has been a thrill: “There’s nothing quite like these actors playing these particular characters.” We couldn’t agree more.
Elsewhere in our Hollywood coverage today, the Nobel Prize–winning novelist Kazuo Ishiguro explains the long road that led to his elegant screenplay for Living. We’ve got an exclusive first look at the trailer for Kerry Washington’s new series, Unprisoned, with Delroy Lindo. We introduce you to Colm Bairéad, the director of The Quiet Girl, about making the first Irish-language film ever to be nominated for an Oscar. And Liam Neeson talks about squirming through his appearance on The View.
