Josh Radnor is the latest star to join the cast of Jordan Peele’s upcoming Amazon Prime series.
According to Deadline, How I Met Your Mother star Josh Radnor has officially signed on to co-star in Amazon’s upcoming drama, The Hunt.
Produced by Academy Award winner Jordan Peele and created by David Weil, The Hunt is set in the 1970s and centers on a group of Nazi hunters living in New York City.
The series follows the group (known as The Hunters) and their efforts to thwart high-profile Nazi officials living in plain sight with plans to bring about a Fourth Reich in the United States.
Radnor, who will co-star in the series alongside Al Pacino, is set to play the role of a movie star called Lonny Flash. In addition to being an actor, Lonny is also secretly a member of an organization lead by Pacino’s Meyer.
Shortly after his involvement on the project was announced, Radnor took to Twitter to share the good news with fans.
“Hunting Nazis alongside Al Pacino is all I’ve ever wanted out of life,” tweeted Radnor.
