The Flight Attendant alum, Rosie Perez, will join upcoming bilingual thriller, Now and Then. Perez found acclaim on HBO Max’s The Flight Attendant, which stars Kaley Cuoco of The Big Bang Theory fame. In the show, flight attendant Cuoco becomes embroiled in a murder investigation after waking up next to a dead body. Perez starred as Megan Briscoe, again a bilingual character, who sells government secrets to North Korea.
According to Variety, Rosie Perez is set to star in Now and Then, a Miami-based bilingual thriller on Apple TV Plus. Perez will be joined by an entirely Hispanic and Latino cast, including José María Yazpik, Maribel Verdú, and Roma’s Marina de Tavira. In a move for diversity, the show will be shot in both Spanish and English.
The plot of Now and Then revolves around a group of college best friends whose lives are forever changed after a celebratory weekend ends up with one of them dead. 20 years later, the remaining five are reluctantly reunited by a threat that puts their “seemingly perfect worlds at risk.” In the upcoming thriller, Perez plays Flora, “a talented detective obsessed with an unresolved case from 20 years ago.”
The Flight Attendant left quite a few questions unanswered. Perez’s character finishes the show on the run after being busted for industrial espionage. Fans who enjoyed Perez in this thrilling role will be thankful for Now and Then while they wait for season 2 of The Flight Attendant. Perez has had a long and prosperous career thus far, and it’ll be interesting to see what she brings to the role of Flora when the new thriller premieres.
