Matt Bomer currently stars as Larry Trainor / Negative Man in “Doom Patrol” for DC Comic’s new streaming platform and he returns for two more episodes of hit sitcom “Will & Grace.” Last spring, Matt made his directorial debut with a critically acclaimed episode of “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.”

Matt Bomer’s upcoming film, John Butler’s “Papi Chulo,” which premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival, will be released in June 2019. Last Summer, Bomer appeared on stage in the Broadway revival of “The Boys In The Band.” The show opened at the Booth Theatre on May 31 to critical acclaim and sold out audiences.

THE SINNER’s third installment follows Detective Harry Ambrose (Pullman) as he begins a routine investigation of a tragic car accident on the outskirts of Dorchester, in upstate New York. Ambrose uncovers a hidden crime that pulls him into the most dangerous and disturbing case of his career. THE SINNER will bring back Derek Simonds as executive producer and showrunner, Jessica Biel and Michelle Purple as executive producers through their company Iron Ocean, and Charlie Gogolak as executive producer. Willie Reale will serve as executive producer. Adam Bernstein (“Fargo,” “Breaking Bad”) is set to direct the first two episodes and will also executive produce.
