Jeff Bridges reminded viewers why he’s a renowned and distinguished talent in FX’s thriller series The Old Man. The Academy Award winner will reprise his role when the show returns for The Old Man Season 2. The series also stars John Lithgow and centers around Bridges’s character, ex-CIA operative Dan Chase, who is forced out of retirement when an old foe resurfaces. This cat-and-mouse game involves several other characters, including Lithgow’s FBI Assistant Director Harold Harper, who was once Dan’s military colleague during the Soviet-Afghanistan War.
While its debut season explored familiar CIA-centric thriller tropes, the standout performances by Bridges and Lithgow, along with the gripping writing by Jonathan E. Steinberg and Robert Levine, ensured that The Old Man became one of FX’s most-watched original series. The show received significant awards recognition, with Bridges and Lithgow earning nominations for Best Actor in a Drama and Best Supporting Actor, respectively, at the Golden Globes, Critics Choice Awards, and SAG Awards. Thus, it is no surprise that The Old Man Season 2 is highly anticipated.
