EXCLUSIVE: Veteran television and film director Thor Freudenthal has returned to NBC to direct and executive produce the pilot for the network’s new drama series The Hunting Party, which began shooting today. He’ll remain as a producer for the remainder of the series. The high-concept crime procedural hails from JJ Bailey, The Endgame co-creator Jake Coburn and Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.
The Hunting Party marks Freudenthal’s third pilot for NBC, having previously helmed the Quantum Leap and La Brea pilots.
Created by Bailey, who wrote the pilot episode, The Hunting Party is a high-concept crime procedural about a small team of investigators who are assembled to track down and capture the most dangerous killers our country has ever seen, all of whom have just escaped from a top-secret prison that’s not supposed to exist.
Picked up to series in February, The Hunting Party stars Melissa Roxburgh, Patrick Sabongui, Sara Garcia, Josh McKenzie and Nick Wechsler. Kyra Leroux recurs.
The Hunting Party is executive produced by Bailey and Jake Coburn who are writing and co-showrunning together. Freudenthal serves as producer. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, is the studio.
Freudenthal also has directed pilots for Carnival Row (Amazon/Legendary), The Therapy for Amazon Germany, and The Death of Eva Sofia Valdez for ABC. On the episodic front, Freudenthal recently directed The Bondsman for Amazon, as well as The Tick for Amazon and The Expanse for Syfy. On the film side, Freudenthal directed Words on Bathroom Walls for LD Entertainment, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters for Fox, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid, also for Fox.

The Emmy-winning actor went on to say there are “a lot” of “quiet” Donald Trump supporters in Hollywood, suggesting they won’t go public with their support out of fear of being similarly criticized for going against Biden. “Is there a quiet Trump voter out there in Hollywood?” host Jesse Watters asked.

No—the hairstyle is a classic for a reason—but this summer, the girls are onto something new: the “kitty cut,” which creates lots of volume in fine hair.When it comes to hairstyle trends lately, there's no getting around layers. It's why haircuts like the “,” “,” and “” are so popular right now. What these cuts all have in common—besides being named after animals—is that they add incredible volume.
