EXCLUSIVE: Nathan Stewart-Jarrett (Misfits) is set as a series regular on HBO Max’s Lena Dunham-produced half-hour dramedy, Generation.
Created by Zelda Barnz and her father Daniel Barnz, who also directs, Generation is a dark yet playful half-hour following a group of high school students whose exploration of modern sexuality (devices and all) tests deeply entrenched beliefs about life, love and the nature of family in their conservative community.
Stewart-Jarrett will play Sam. Not your typical guidance counselor, Sam’s strength lies in his realness. While Sam leads with an “actually I invented the game” attitude, a part of him will always wish he was as bold and fearless as his students.
