The 'This Is Us' Cast Will Be Coming Back in a Major Way

It looks like Milo Ventimiglia is going back to his old roots ... sort of. After making a brief appearance as the "Handsome Man" on season 4 of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, TVLine announced in May that the actor is set to return but in a "more extensive" way than viewers initially met him.

And that's not all — Milo's about to make a return to network television as the star and executive producer of ABC's The Company You Keep. According to Deadline, the show follows con man Charlie (Milo) as he works on getting out of the family business. Along the way, he falls for an undercover CIA officer set to take down the person holding Charlie's family's debts. Sounds pretty juicy, if you ask us ...

Following in her This Is Us character's roots, Mandy Moore is planning on taking a step back from TV to focus on her singing career. Her latest album, In Real Life, just dropped in May 2022, and she's about to take her music on the road this summer.

Aside from making music, Mandy also wants to take some time and focus on one special person — her son Gus, whom she welcomed with husband Taylor Goldsmith in February 2021. "I was pregnant with Gus all throughout the fifth season and then I went back to work when he was a month old," she told Entertainment Tonight in May 2022. "So, I’m excited to be a mom for a minute, then figure out what I wanna do after that.”

From NBC to Hulu. In October 2021, Deadline revealed that Sterling K. Brown would be starring in the upcoming series Washington Black, based on Esi Edugyan's 2018 novel of the same name.

While the show follows a young boy needing to flee a Barbados sugar plantation, Sterling will play Medwin Harris, a "larger than life" Black refugee who is the unofficial mayor of Halifax and wants nothing to do with the child. Quite a turn from his current role ...

It doesn't look like Chrissy Metz is done making us break down in tears just yet. After six years of playing Kate Pearson, her next role comes in the form of a new movie called Stay Awake.

In the film (which recently opened at the Berlin and San Francisco film festivals), Chrissy portrays a single mom who works with her family to try and battle her prescription drug addiction. "It looks at the American prescription drug epidemic through a lens we rarely see — the effect that addicts have on their children," she wrote on Instagram about the project.

Never one to leave his love of acting, Justin Hartley has a few projects in the works. While his new film Senior Year (starring Rebel Wilson) just premiered on Netflix, Deadline previously announced in September 2021 that he would be teaming up with This Is Us producer Ken Olin for CBS' The Never Game.

Based on Jeffrey Deaver's novel of the same name, the show will follow a pseudo-bounty hunter as he treks cross-country (in an RV, no less!) to help police and civilians solve crimes and missing person cases. But when one case becomes a cat-and-mouse chase, it stops being all business and instead personal.

Apart from the acting, it may be time for Chris to hit up his This Is Us character for dad tips on how to be a father of two! Just two years after the birth of son Beau Maxwell with wife Rachel Sullivan, the couple is set to welcome a baby girl in November.
