As a devoted fan of Colman Domingo‘s exceptional work, I eagerly await the arrival of “The Madness” next month. With his mesmerizing performances in critically acclaimed projects like “Rustin”, “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”, and “Fear the Walking Dead”, Domingo has proven time and again that he can tackle complex characters with both grace and intensity.
Nominee for an Academy Award finds it difficult to steer clear of the turmoil dubbed as “The Madness“. In the upcoming month, the lead actor from “Rustin” and “Sing Sing”, known for his riveting performances, will star in a new action-thriller series. This intriguing tale of deceit and homicide offers our first glimpse, promising a story of conspiracy and bloodshed. “The Madness“, the latest venture for Domingo, has gained momentum since his Oscar-nominated role in last year’s critically acclaimed biographical drama “Rustin“. This project seems tailor-made for the actor, offering an opportunity to showcase both his dramatic and action skills.

Next month, “The Madness” will be making its debut on Netflix, where it tells the story of Domingo, a media pundit who becomes the target from all angles after he discovers a lethal conspiracy. Alongside the sneak peek, you can also read the official summary for this action-packed thriller series that follows below.
Following the discovery of a corpse hidden within the dense forest of the Poconos by a TV commentator, he unwittingly becomes the suspect in the assassination of a well-known racist extremist.
Emmy-winning actor Colman Domingo, known for his roles in productions such as “If Beale Street Could Talk,” “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom,” “Fear the Walking Dead,” and “Euphoria,” will headline the upcoming series. He will be joined by an impressive cast that includes Marsha Stephanie Blake (known for “When They See Us” and “Orange Is the New Black”), Gabrielle Graham (“Twenties,” “21 Thunder”), John Ortiz (“Silver Linings Playbook”), Tamsin Topolski (“The Diplomat”), and Thaddeus J. Mixon (“Creed III”).
The Madness Reflects the Mad, Mad World We’re Living In
Stephen Belber, who is known for works like “O.G.” and “The Laramie Project,” has crafted a series titled “The Madness“. Netflix classifies this as an “eight-episode limited series”. In an interview with Netflix Tudum, Domingo shared his reasons for being attracted to the intriguing plot of this conspiratorial thriller. The show mirrors the “crazy, crazy times” we are experiencing collectively today.
We’re currently residing in a rather peculiar world, one that might leave you questioning its sanity when you switch on the news. You might find yourself wondering ‘What is being said?’, ‘How is this possible?’ and ‘Why does it seem normal?’ The truth is, nothing about it feels normal. This [series] serves to confirm your suspicions, reminding you that things aren’t as they should be. Let’s unravel the mysteries behind it all.
The performer, set to appear in both the animated Marvel Cinematic Universe series “Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man” and the live-action film “Michael” as Joseph Jackson, the father and manager of pop sensation Michael Jackson, expressed his excitement about portraying a “one-of-a-kind hero” in the upcoming movie titled “The Madness“.
I found everything in this conspiracy thriller absolutely captivating. The protagonist was unlike any I’ve encountered before – someone with centrist views, suddenly compelled to fully embrace an extreme ideology and reassess relationships once considered adversarial. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that there are more similarities between these individuals than initially perceived. It’s a thought-provoking exploration of our current societal attitudes, our readiness to take action, and the hidden forces manipulating events for their own gain.
The Madness
