Adapted from Viet Thanh Nguyen’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel of the same name, The Sympathizer tells the story of a half-French, half-Vietnamese communist spy struggling during the final days of the Vietnam War.
The series, which follows a man living among a community of South Vietnamese refugees while secretly spying on them and torn between his loyalties and his new life, is described as a spy thriller and an intercultural satire.
It has been announced that The Sympathizer, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Hoa Xuande, will be screened on BluTV.
In addition to Xuande and Downey Jr., the cast of The Sympathizer includes names such as Fred Nguyen Khan, Toan Le, Vy Le, Alan Trong, Vy Le, Ky Duyen, and Sandra Oh.
