ECNETNews reports that Paramount+ has added Augustus Prew, known for his role in The Morning Show, to the cast of 1923 Season 2. Prew will take on the recurring role of Paul, described as a “dapper, bookish, well-to-do young British man on a passenger ship.” This season continues to feature renowned actors Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren in lead roles.
The storyline of 1923 revolves around the Dutton family’s next two generations as they navigate the challenges of historic drought, lawlessness, and prohibition, alongside an epidemic of cattle theft during Montana’s Great Depression—an event that predated the national Great Depression by nearly a decade.
