Tommy Lee Jones Joins FX’s “The Lowdown” Season 2 Cast

Disney has announced details on the upcoming second season of the hit FX series, “The Lowdown”, which begins production this spring in Tulsa.

FX’s “The Lowdown” follows the gritty exploits of citizen journalist Lee Raybon, a self-proclaimed Tulsa “truthstorian” whose obsession with the truth is always getting him into trouble. While Lee’s no idealist, he’s fiercely committed to exposing corruption and unearthing the city’s hidden rot, even when it puts him at risk.

In season one, the publication of Lee’s latest exposé – a deep dive into the powerful Washberg family – is immediately followed by the suspicious suicide of Dale Washberg, and Lee knows he’s stumbled onto something big. Following a trail of breadcrumbs Dale has left behind, urging someone to dig deeper into the circumstances surrounding his death, Lee does just that. 

The series stars Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke.  The first season also starred Keith David and featured guest stars Kyle MacLachlan, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Tim Blake Nelson, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, Michael “Killer Mike” Render, Kaniehtiio Horn, Tracy Letts, Peter Dinklage and the late, great Graham Greene.

The second season will star Betty Gilpin, and Disney has announced that Oscar-winning Tommy Lee Jones has joined the cast of the second season of FX’s “The Lowdown”. 

Tommy Lee Jones has appeared in many shows and films over his career, including “JFK”, “Under Siege”, “The Fugitive”, “Batman Forever”, “Men In Black” and “Captain America: The First Avenger”.

“The Lowdown” is created by Sterlin Harjo, who executive produces with Garrett Basch, Ethan Hawke, Ryan Hawke, Duffy Boudreau and Scott Teems.   It has been produced by FX Productions.

The entire first season of “The Lowdown” is available to stream on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States and on Disney+ around the world.
