Exclusive interview with Jharrel Jerome on Mr. Mercedes

July 31, 2017 by Tai Freligh

Tai Freligh interviews Jharrel Jerome from Mr. Mercedes…

Jharrel Jerome (Moonlight) plays Jerome in Mr. Mercedes, the television show based on the Stephen King novel of the same name. Tai Freligh with Flickering Myth interviewed him at Comic-Con 2017 and asked him about his character on the show, what he learned from Jack Bender and what it was like to be on stage at the Oscars for Moonlight‘s dramatic win.

Here he talks about his character.

Here he talks about reading the book to get insight into his character.

He also was in Moonlight and talks about being onstage when the film won the Best Picture Oscar.

Here he talks about what he learned from executive producer/director Jack Bender while on set for Mr. Mercedes.

From Executive Producers Stephen King, David E. Kelley and Jack Bender comes the story of a demented serial killer who taunts a retired police detective with a series of lurid letters and emails. This forces the ex-cop to undertake a private, and potentially felonious, crusade to bring the killer to justice before he can strike again. 

Brendan Gleeson (Harry Potter) plays Detective Bill Hodges alongside Harry Treadaway (Penny Dreadful) as Brady Hartsfield, Jharrel Jerome (Moonlight) as Jerome Robinson, Scott Lawrence (Avatar) as Detective Peter Dixon, Robert Stanton (Mercury Rising) as Anthony “Robi” Frobisher, Ann Cusack (Nightcrawler) as Olivia Trelawney, Mary-Louise Parker (Weeds) as Janey Patterson and Holland Taylor (The Truman Show) as Ida Silver. They join the previously announced Kelly Lynch (Magic City) as Deborah Hartsfield, Justine Lupe (Harry’s Law) as Holly Gibney and Breeda Wool (uNREAL) as Lou Linklatter.

Mr. Mercedes is set to premiere on August 9th.
