PopUps: Jonathan Groff to Star in Upcoming Netflix Series 'Mindhunter'
"Looking" star Jonathan Groff, who is currently in the hit Broadway musical "Hamilton," has found his next small screen role: an upcoming Netflix serial killer series called "Mindhunter," according to TV Line.
Details about Groff's role have not been revealed, however, and Netflix did not comment to TV Line.
The series, which comes from director David Fincher (who directed the first episode of Netflix's "House of Cards"), is based on the 1996 non-fiction book "Mind Hunter: Inside the FBI's Elite Serial Crime Unit." TV Line reports the book by John Douglas and Mark Olshaker "chronicled Douglas' pursuit of some of the most notorious serial killers and rapists."
Fincher will direct the premier episode and will be an executive producer along with Charlize Theron.
TV Line notes Goff recently finished filming the two-hour movie/series finale for HBO's "Looking," which will air later this year.
