On “Candy”, Hulu’s true-crime series about the killing of Betty Gore starring Jessica Biel as accused axe murderer Candy Montgomery, Justin Timberlake makes a surprise appearance in episode four, “Cover Girl”, as Deputy Steve Deffibaugh, the real-life cop who led the criminal investigation. Timberlake, of course, is not the only spouse to show up on the series. Jason Ritter, husband to Melanie Lynskey, who portrays Betty, appears on the limited series as Timberlake’s partner.
While speaking to ET, Biel and Lynskey revealed how their husbands ended up in the final two episodes of “Candy” and joked about Timberlake and Ritter’s onscreen bromance as the two cops trying to figure out who is responsible for Betty’s death.
As Biel explains, Timberlake was reading the scripts “because I always ask him for his opinion on everything I’m doing,” when he asked who was going to portray the deputy. “He said, ‘Oh, who’s playing this character?’ I said, ‘Oh, I don’t know, probably somebody local. We don’t have any money left,’” the actress, who also serves as executive producer on the series, recalls. “And he goes, ‘I want to play it.’”
“The Justin news came first and I thought that was so cool. Obviously, he’s going to bring a certain interest to the project from his own fan base,” says Pablo Schreiber, who portrays Betty’s husband, Allan. “And just to have people that are married getting to work together and on the same set, it’s like a big family.”
Once Timberlake was added to the cast, co-creator and showrunner Robin Veith was inspired to cast Ritter after seeing a picture of him donning a mustache. “Robin was like, ‘Wow, Jason looks like he’s in the ’80s,’” Lynskey recalled. “She was inspired by his ‘80s cool, edgy fireman look.”
