Bridgerton season one stud Regé-Jean Page is returning to Netflix in a new “erotic” thriller series Hancock Park, which is currently in development at the streamer. Page will also executive produce the (potential) series from studio Fifth Season.
Page will play a member of Los Angeles high society whose family is struggling to hold onto their status. You know, if the show earns an official greenlight.
The series is written by Matthew Barry (The Guest, Industry, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) and executive produced by Page through his production company A Mighty Stranger. Emily Brown (The Count of Monte Cristo, Funny You Should Ask) and Drew Comins (Yellowjackets, All the Old Knives) will also executive produce.
Hancock Park is “an erotic thriller that follows a dangerously charismatic outsider, who invades the lives of a seemingly picture-perfect Los Angeles family — when he rents their backyard guest house,” the synopsis reads. “But as he dives further into their world, the façade of this elite community begins to crumble, and he exposes the desire, deceit, and obsession that lurks around every corner of one of L.A.’s most-coveted neighborhoods.”
“Erotic… charismatic…desire” — yeah, Netflix brought back the right guy for the job.
Page broke out in the first season of Netflix’s Bridgerton as Simon Basset, the Duke of Hasting. Four years prior, he played Chicken George in a remake of the miniseries Roots. Page immediately followed up his star-making Bridgerton turn with a role in the Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans and Ana de Armas Netflix movie The Gray Man from the Russo Brothers.
