On Sunday, April 28, Apple TV+ held a special Emmys FYC event for the new drama series “Sugar.” Gold Derby associate editor Latasha Ford was there to chat with the show’s Oscar-nominated star Colin Farrell as well as executive producer Audrey Chon. The invite-only event was held at the Linwood Dunn Theater in Hollywood. Watch the exclusive red carpet interviews above.
In the eight-episode series, Farrell portrays American private investigator John Sugar, a man assigned to look into the mysterious disappearance of Olivia Siegel, the beloved granddaughter of legendary Hollywood producer Jonathan Siegel. As he tries to determine what happened to Olivia, he will also unearth Siegel family secrets; some very recent, others long-buried.
The series also stars Kirby Howell-Baptiste (“Sandman”), Amy Ryan (“The Wire”), James Cromwell (“Succession”), Anna Gunn (“Breaking Bad”), Dennis Boutsikaris (“Better Call Saul”), Nate Corddry (“Mindhunter”), Sydney Chandler (“Don’t Worry Darling”), and Alex Hernandez (“Invasion”).
“Sugar” is created by Mark Protosevich who also executive produces. Audrey Chon and Simon Kinberg executive produce for Genre Films, marking their second series with Apple TV+ under Kinberg’s overall deal, following “Invasion.” Sam Catlin, Scott Greenberg and Chip Vucelich also serve as executive producers. The series was directed by Fernando Meirelles (“City of God,” “Two Popes”), who also executive produces, and Adam Arkin (“The Offer”), who also co-executive produces.
