Cooper Hoffman has been cast as the lead of the new Hulu drama pilot Durango from writer Eliza Clark (FX’s Y: The Last Man), 20th Television, and Media Res.
The pilot follows Hoffman’s character Mikey, a ski bum townie chasing a buzz. Bunny is a homeschooled runaway working as a greasy-spoon waitress. Together they’re riding an avalanche of bad decisions and falling in love while running from cops, criminals, and Mikey’s wife in pursuit of their own American dream.
Further details on the character of Mikey: After an injury ruins his Olympic dreams, Mikey, an easy-going and street-savvy local snowboarding legend, pays his rent the old-fashioned way, by agreeing to a green card marriage. Secretly, he yearns for more, and when he falls for newcomer Bunny, he unwittingly gets pulled into something far more dangerous.
