Life of Pi actor Suraj Sharma joins the cast How I Met Your Father

Life of Pi actor Suraj Sharma has joined the cast of How I Met Your Father, a spin-off of the Emmy-winning sitcom How I Met Your Mother. It stars Hilary Duff in the lead role and according to Deadline, the series will get a release on Hulu.

The show is created and written by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger. It talks about Sophie (Duff) and her friends who are in the midst of figuring out their identities, aspirations, and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps.


Apart from Suraj Sharma and Hilary Duff, the series will also star Chris Lowell, Francia Raisa, Tom Ainsley, and Tien Tran. Raisa will portray the character of Valentina, Sophie's roommate, Ainsley plays the role of Charlie, Chris Lowell will be seen as Jesse, and Tran will portray Ellen, Jesse's adopted sister.

Meanwhile, Sharma will play the character of Sid, Jesse's best friend and roommate. How I Met Your Mother is one of the best sitcoms we have seen, so, the expectations from How I Met Your Father are also quite high.

Talking about Suraj Sharma, the actor started his journey with the 2012 release Life of Pi. He later starred in films like Million Dollar Arm (2014), Umrika (2015), Burn Your Maps (2016), Phillauri (2017), The Hungry (2017), Happy Death Day 2U (2019), Killerman (2019), and The Illegal (2019).

Sharma has also been a part of shows like Homeland, God Friended Me, and Little America.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
