For Justin Hartley, sometimes you have to go it alone on ‘This Is Us’
It was easy to dismiss Justin Hartley’s performance in “This Is Us” — at least initially.In the debut season of NBC’s time-jumping family drama, which follows the five-member Pearson clan through various phases in their lives, characters dealt with such fraught subject matters as loss of a baby, weight issues, addiction and feelings of racial otherness. For adult Kevin Pearson, the member of the Big Three siblings portrayed by Hartley, much of the character’s first-season storyline revolved around him being a recognizable actor who quit the popular sitcom he headlined because he was striving to be taken more seriously. Boo-hoo, right?But jump ahead to Season 2 and the depth emerges.After landing a role in a Ron Howard movie, opposite Sylvester Stallone(!), an old knee injury resurfaces and Kevin finds himself on a Vicodin spiral of dysfunction and poor choices — a supercharged version of his father Jack’s alcohol dependency.

How Much Of Jack’s Story We’ll See In This Is Us Season 3
1 minute ago This Is Us is on the road to Season 3, with some fans giddily excited to see the follow-ups for each cliffhanger we saw at the end of Season 2, and others far more concerned. Fans saw Jack Pearson die in Season 2, and with his death now having come and gone, viewers are wondering how much of his story will continue to get focused on going forward. Kevin Pearson actor Justin Hartley put worries to rest as he teased much more Jack coming in Season 3.

Kevin was last seen on a plane headed to Vietnam and clutching a picture taken during his father's war days. That tease, combined with promotional footage and past interviews with Milo Ventimiglia, confirmed that Jack's time in Vietnam will be covered in Season 3, with the meat and potatoes of the storyline centering around how Jack lost his brother and fellow … [Read more...] about How Much Of Jack’s Story We’ll See In This Is Us Season 3
Why This Is Us’ Mystery Cliffhanger Is More Important Than We Thought
10 minutes ago This Is Us news has settled since the show's explosive Season 2 finale, which teased each Pearson child's future in Season 3, but star Sterling K. Brown is getting the ball rolling again. The actor recently talked about Randall's flash-forward cliffhanger, where he and grown-up Tess are going to visit a mystery "her," and Brown revealed the answer to that mystery is probably more important than fans may have originally thought, as it hints at the show's overall endgame. In Brown's words: It feels like Sterling K. Brown just declared that his future This Is Us storyline might just be the next "how did Jack die?" mystery for fans to get rabid about. Whoever Tess and Randall are on their way to see in the flash-forward is apparently going to be important to the events happening in Season 3's present-day storyline. This Is Us fans might've already assumed that, considering most of the show's flashback moments are often tied to the present in major ways, so really, … [Read more...] about Why This Is Us’ Mystery Cliffhanger Is More Important Than We Thought
