Tobias Menzies joins cast of Beth and Don
Just as we enter Droughtlander, we have a new movie to look forward to. Tobias Menzies has joined the cast of A24’s Beth and Don.
We’ll start by saying the bad news is that the movie isn’t coming out any time soon. Cameras start rolling next week, according to Deadline, but at least we have something to look forward to. Outlander actor Tobias Menzies will play Don in the upcoming movie Beth and Don.
He’ll star opposite Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who will play Beth. We’ll get a chance to see Menzies in a vastly different role compared to Black Jack Randall and Frank Randall. That’s always fun to see as a fan of an actor.
What is Beth and Don about?
The A24 movie is focused on Beth, a New York novelist. She and Don have been married for years, and they absolutely adore each other. Don supports his wife in every way that he can, but he’s holding a secret that Beth one day overhears him admit. It turns out that Don hasn’t liked Beth’s writing for years.
This is hurtful to Beth. That means he’s lied to her for years when he’s commented on her work. What else could he have lied about? This could destroy their marriage completely.
Is Manhunt still happening with Tobias Menzies?
As you hear about Beth and Don, you may have remembered that Tobias Menzies was slated to appear in another project. He’d been cast in the lead of Manhunt for Apple TV+.
Don’t worry; that’s still happening with him. This is something that Deadline also confirms. Filming on that hasn’t started yet. A movie will always take up less time than a series, so we’ll likely see filming of Manhunt happen after filming of Beth and Don. We trust his agent has it all under control.
