On its surface, the eight-episode Apple TV+ series Sugar is a private detective story wrapped in film noir with an air of mystery surrounding it. John Sugar (Colin Farrell) takes a case for legendary Hollywood producer Jonathan Siegel (James Cromwell) to find his missing granddaughter, but as he attempts to uncover what happened, there’s bound to be secrets that someone will have wanted to keep buried. As you follow the investigation, it becomes clear that there are things going on with Sugar that have a deeper explanation not immediately presenting itself.
Episode 6 of Sugar, entitled “Go Home,” finally provided some specific clarity as to what the private investigator’s true purpose is. Having already watched the entire season, Collider got the opportunity to chat with Farrell about the series, his character, and the reveal. During the interview, he talked about what a collaborative process the season was, how he approached figuring out John Sugar, the inspiration he took from the noir detective genre, getting to drive around Los Angeles in that incredible car, figuring out how to portray Sugar’s flashback episodes, fine tuning the best time to make that big character reveal, the connection between Sugar and Melanie (Amy Ryan), and that there is more to explore with this character, even though they haven’t been picked up for a Season 2 yet.
Sugar is available to stream on Apple TV+
