Kathryn Newton To Star Opposite Cooper Hoffman in Hulu Drama Series DURANGO

Kathryn Newton (Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Ready or Not 2) has been cast in a leading role in the Hulu pilot Durango, opposite Cooper Hoffman (Licorice Pizza, The Long Walk). The series comes from writer Eliza Clark (Animal Kingdom, Y: The Last Man), who is executive producing with Media Res’ Michael Ellenberg and Lindsey Springer.

Durango follows Mikey, a ski bum townie chasing a buzz. Bunny is a homeschooled runaway working as a greasy-spoon waitress. Together they’re riding an avalanche of bad decisions and falling in love while running from cops, criminals, and Mikey’s wife in pursuit of their own American dream.

Newton will play Bunny, who is beguiling, wild, and deeply guarded. She is someone who’s always been determined to keep moving — and her latest stop in Durango is no different. She doesn’t trust easily, but something about local snowboarding legend Mikey (Cooper Hoffman) gets through. When the two end up in the wrong place at the wrong time, the secrets she’s spent years burying may finally claw their way out.

Newton is currently filming Roxy Sophie Sorkin’s feature directorial debut Hot Year opposite Storm Reid, Dove Cameron, and J. Smith Cameron. Up next, she can be seen in Avengers: Doomsday in theaters this December.
