What to Know About Sterling K. Brown's ‘Washington Black': From Cast Details to Book Connections
Fans waiting for season 2 of Paradise can get their Sterling K. Brown fix with his upcoming Hulu series, Washington Black. Brown has remained booked and busy since wrapping up his time on NBC's This Is Us. He reunited with creator Dan Fogelman to work on Hulu's political thriller Paradise, which premiered in January 2025. The show received critical acclaim and was renewed one month later. Before filming Paradise, however, Brown partnered up with Selwyn Seyfu Hinds to produce a TV adaptation of Esi Edugyan's novel Washington Black. The 2019 book follows George Washington Black (Eddie Karanja and Ernest Kingsley Jr.) through past and present timelines as he is raised under the shadow of slavery before catching the attention of the sugar plantation owner's brother. A young Washington is recruited to help the owner's brother, leading to an adventure around the world. Washington in present day goes by Wash and lives in Nova Scotia, where he is taken under the wing of town leader Medwin Harris (Brown). Summer TV Preview 2025: Inside Must-Watch New and Returning Shows From 'The Bear' to 'Love Island USA' "The book is written in Wash's first person, recollective voice," Hinds told Entertainment Weekly in May 2025. "When I first read the book and started thinking about how to adapt it, the structure that I really thought about was The Canterbury Tales and this voyage of this boy who becomes a man through all these characters who affect him and who he affects." Keep scrolling for everything to know about Washington Black: Who Is Starring in 'Washington Black'? In addition to Kingsley Jr., Brown and Katanga, Washington Black stars Tom Ellis, Iola Evans, Julian Rhind-Tutt, Billy Boyd, Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine and Edward Bluemel. Sharon Duncan-Brewster, Rupert Graves, Shaunette Renée Wilson, Charles Dance and Blaine Dorey make up the rest of the cast. What Is 'Washington Black' About? Based on the book of the same name, Washington Black follows an 11-year-old boy who "is forced to flee his home on a sugar plantation in Barbados after a shocking death." The boy ultimately finds a mentor who has "a traumatic childhood as a Black refugee in Nova Scotia." When Does 'Washington Black' Premiere? All eight episodes of Washington Black will be released on July 23, 2025. How Much of the Show Will Be Based on the Book? The show will have a major shift when it comes to the timeline. "If we told the story linearly, we wouldn't get to adult Wash until episode 7," Hinds told EW. "So the structure suggested itself." Showrunner Kimberly Ann Harrison broke down the decision, adding, "We wanted to show Wash's origin story because that is really important. So those two timelines of showing the boy that he was, and then, the man he grows into were really important to us." TV Shows Based on Best-Selling Books: From 'Big Little Lies' to 'The Handmaid's Tale' What Role Does Sterling K. Brown Play? "The thing about Sterling is he's not some kind of diva movie star who's like, 'Write me a gigantic role.' It was what's going to serve the story best. It took me a couple of months to really figure out that so much of this tale is about mentorship, who you mentor and who you're mentored by," Hinds shared. "I realized that we needed a counterpoint to [his mentor] Titch's relationship with Wash for the adult version of Wash. We already had that character in the book in Medwin, so from there it was just building it out." Brown balanced his starring role with being an executive producer. "He was in Video Village, he was giving notes to the actors," Harrison recalled. "I had never really encountered that — to see an actor really step into that producer role the way that he did with problem solving, budget talk. It was great to work with him as both an actor and on the producer level. What Is the Message of 'Washington Black'? "A lot of these conversations around identity, around race, around tribalism, they're always here," Hinds noted to EW. "It is just a matter of sometimes there's a piece of art that brings them up to the volume where we all hear them and are aware of them." Harrison, meanwhile, elaborated on the theme of the series. "There's who people think you're supposed to be and who, when you question your own identity, you choose to be," she noted. "We're in a place where people are starting to question and ask those questions where they might not have before." Solve the daily Crossword

Sterling K. Brown Reflects on Getting to Help Bring ‘Paradise' and ‘Washington Black' to Life
Sterling K. Brown is using his prolific career to help support new TV shows — including Paradise and Washington Black. "Everything happens in divine timing — exactly when it's supposed to. It may not be exactly what you are hoping for but it's always exactly what it's supposed to be," Brown, 49, noted during an exclusive interview with Us Weekly about Washington Black's release on Hulu. Brown, who plays Medwin, said he was "tremendously proud" of his latest role. "It's a beautiful story. It is told beautifully and shot beautifully. We got a chance to shoot in Iceland and in Nova Scotia and in Mexico. We got a chance to take this very melanated cast across the globe," he gushed. "And to see something with that level of expanse that has us centered [in it] gives me a tremendous amount of pride." What to Know About Sterling K. Brown's 'Washington Black': From Cast Details to Book Connections While reflecting on his recent projects, Brown acknowledged his work behind and in front of the camera, adding, "By virtue of me being an executive producer, if that helped get the story get told then I hope to help get more stories like that told." Brown has remained booked and busy since wrapping up his time on NBC's This Is Us. His most recent show, Washington Black, offered Brown a chance to partner with Selwyn Seyfu Hinds to produce a TV adaptation of Esi Edugyan's novel of the same name. The 2019 book follows George Washington Black (Eddie Karanja and Ernest Kingsley Jr.) through past and present timelines as he is raised under the shadow of slavery before catching the attention of the sugar plantation owner's brother. A young Washington is recruited to help the owner's brother, leading to an adventure around the world. Washington in present day goes by Wash and lives in Nova Scotia, where he is taken under the wing of town leader Medwin Harris (Brown). "Medwin is a small mention in the book. We definitely extrapolate it just so I could have something to do," Brown told Us of his character. "But it's interesting to see the difference in mentorship that Wash has throughout his life and him moving to place of, 'Oh, I don't need a mentor. Anything that I thought that I needed from someone else I actually have with myself.' Then it moves from mentorship to partnership. So I like to see how Medwin functions in that way and his ultimate evolution of Wash." While Washington Black was just released on Wednesday, July 23, it was in the works for some time. It was even filmed before Brown's other hit Hulu series Paradise, which reunited him with This Is Us creator Dan Fogelman. The political thriller, which premiered in January, received critical acclaim and was renewed one month later. Washington Black gave Brown a chance to elevate the stories he wants to see released. It also provided the opportunity for him to mentor several of the show's stars, who couldn't help but sing Brown's praises. Summer TV Preview 2025: Inside Must-Watch New and Returning Shows From 'The Bear' to 'Love Island USA' "First of all, I feel like I kind of dragged Sterling into being a mentor. I just kind of asked him so many questions, like, 'Hey man, how are you doing? It's 1:00 a.m. but I need your help,'" Kingsley Jr., who plays adult Wash, joked to Us. "It was natural, to be honest. It was naturally built." Kingsley Jr. pointed out how Brown "operates with vulnerability in such a powerful way," adding, "Sterling operates with a sense of power, and he encourages and incites it in you. It is this sense of, if you open up to that [kind of vulnerability yourself] then it will be held and cared for and loved. I feel like he spread that out across multiple cast members and across the crew." He continued: "Just his presence was a mentorship and getting to see him every day. It was a blessing and a gift to have him on set. Also, just to have him in my life. Now he can't get rid of me." Brown, meanwhile, attempted to play off the praise, quipping, "I paid them all. That's really the bottom line of the whole thing. I walked their dogs when they needed me to. I do special favors so they say nice things about him." Washington Black is currently streaming on Hulu.
