Paradise was released on Hulu on January 28, 2025, and has been garnering praise from both critics and viewers.
Brown plays Xavier Collins, a Secret Service agent who shows up to work one morning to find the president dead on the floor of his bedroom. Looks like murder. But the official story — determined by those higher up the food chain than Xavier — will be natural causes.
In Paradise, nothing is how it appears, a fact that becomes increasingly obvious as the first episode plays out on Hulu. If you have yet to tune into the series from creator Dan Fogelman ( This Is Us ), now would be the time to stop reading as we dive into major spoilers.
If there's a Plot Twist Hall of Fame, Dan Fogelman might've just earned himself entry. Fogelman is the creator of Hulu's Paradise, a drama positioned as a murder mystery involving the president of the United States and the head of his Secret Service detail.
"Paradise" brings lots of mystery and plenty of twists. The new series starring Sterling K. Brown, James Marsden, Julianne Nicholson, Sarah Shahi will stream on Hulu.
FandomWire reviews PARADISE, a new drama series from Dan Fogelman about a secret service agent investigating the president's murder.
Paradise stars Sterling K. Brown as a secret service agent who was the last person to see the US President before his assassination.
“Paradise” has themes of climate change, privilege and the pecking order of who in society gets saved during an emergency. There's a relevance to the series which Brown says is coincidental because Dan Fogelman — creator and writer of “This is Us” — conceived “Paradise” 10 years ago. It makes sense to him though why it would provoke thought.
