So, like, what does series star Liev Schreiber -- Mr. Donovan himself -- have to say about being out of a regular gig soon? Is he just gonna make more weird Blade ads?

It looks like Liev Schreiber's Ray will have plenty to 'fix' this season, which welcomes Josh Hamilton (Eighth Grade), Kerry Condon (Better Call Saul) and Louisa Krause (The Girlfriend Experience) in …
The first international trailer for The Death and Life of John F. Donovan has landed online, offering a look at writer/director Xavier Dolan’s long-delayed English-language debut.
