Is Bill Hader’s Barry evil?
For those who watched the first season, which ended with Hader’s hitman-turned-actor appearing to murder Det. Moss (Paula Newsome) after she finds out about his other life as a contract killer, that answer might veer towards the “yes” category.
In the (short) first teaser for the sophomore season of HBO’s “Barry,” which you can watch above, it seems that question of Barry’s morality will be pondered. No premiere date has been set for Season 2, but the dark comedy is expected to air sometime in the spring.
“Barry” stars Bill Hader in the title role as a depressed, low-rent hitman from the Midwest who finds himself drawn into a community of acting students while on a job in Los Angeles. Hader and Alec Berg created the show and executive produce it. “Barry” is also produced by Aida Rodgers and Emily Heller. Liz Sarnoff is a consulting producer.
It also stars Henry Winkler (fresh off his first-ever Emmy win for Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy), Stephen Root, Sarah Goldberg, Glenn Fleshler, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, Anthony Carrigan and Darrell Britt-Gibson.
