The actor previously told The Hollywood Reporter how it wasn’t possible to really predict where the story would be headed after that reveal.
He said:
“Every time we think we know, [creators Ryan Murphy, Ian Brennan and Brad Falchuk] really shock us.
“All I know is that it will be very much focused on mine and Judith’s race, and that we’ll be in New York now. And we’re theoretically a little bit older and coming into our own as adults.”
- Season one of The Politician is available on Netflix now.
