Shrinking features Segel, Ford, Christa Miller, Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell and Ted McGinley.
Returning from season two is Ted Lasso‘s Brett Goldstein as Louis, the man who drunkenly hit Jimmy’s wife, Damon Wayans Jr. as Derrick, Gaby’s new boyfriend, Wendie Malick as Julia, Paul’s girlfriend, and Segel’s former How I Met Your Mother co-star Cobie Smulders after she guest starred for an episode as Sofi, a woman Jimmy bought an old car from.
The third season will introduce Jeff Daniels (The Martian) as Jimmy’s father and Back to the Future icon Michael J. Fox in his first TV role in several years as a Parkinson’s patient who connects with Paul after his Parkinson’s diagnosis. Newcomers also include Sherry Cola (Joy Ride) and Isabella Gomez (One Day at a Time).
