Production was shut down in March 2020 due to government restrictions
Tale
A retired CIA agent is haunted by both the agency he worked for and his own nightmares when an unknown man pays him an unexpected visit after nearly three decades. During this time, Jeff Bridges was diagnosed and treated for non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
After recovering, the series returned to production
Bridges called the return after a “long weekend.” on a podcast in July 2022. Appeared at the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards (2024).
The Old Man is a spy thriller that is definitely worth watching!
Jeff Bridges is fantastic as always and does an incredible job of making you believe he is still a bad guy at 72 years old. His dogs steal every scene they are in and remind me of the dogs in John Wick.
I can’t wait to read more and recommend it to anyone who loves spy thrillers
The rest of the cast is at the top of their game here too, especially John Lithgow (who rarely disappoints). I know there are a lot of great spy shows out there, but this one has everything you want in a spy thriller and is a must watch.
