Widow’s Bay has prevailed as the sleeper hit of 2026, and Kingston Rumi Southwick can’t wait for season two.
“It’s so much fun,” the 18-year-old tells The Hollywood Reporter on a recent Zoom. “I’m glad people are connecting to it.”
The actor plays Evan, son to Matthew Rhys’ Tom, in the Apple TV horror comedy series. Created by Katie Dippold, Widow’s Bay is set in a fictional — and very much cursed — New England island town and centers around Tom, the town’s mayor.
Since the show’s April premiere, it’s continued to pick up momentum both critically and in viewing. “I remember reading it for the first time and being like, I love this,” Southwick says.
