The actor is following in the footsteps of Jessica Biel and Carrie Coon, who starred in the first and second season.
The crime drama series has been a huge success, with two Golden Globe nominations and an Emmy nomination for the first series, while the second season scored 97% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Matt expressed his excitement over the news on Instagram and wrote: “Beyond excited to work with the incredible cast and creative team on @thesinnerusa , a show I’m already a huge fan of. It’s also nice to be coming home to the place where it all began, @usa_network . Wait until you see what’s in store for season 3!”
According to Variety, the third season will follow Bill Pullman, who plays Detective Harry Ambrose, as he begins a routine investigation of a tragic car accident in Dorchester.
