Writer / Producer
Cuse co-created, co-wrote and was the showrunner for the second season of Amazon’s most-watched series ever, “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan,” starring John Krasinski, which he has described as a parable about the fragility of democracy. He is stepping down from that position for the upcoming season three, so he can be the showrunner of “Locke & Key,” premiering on Netflix in early 2020. Based on the comic-book franchise by Joe Hill (son of Stephen King), the series had been in development with other creatives at various studios since 2008. Cuse, whose long line of TV credits includes “Nash Bridges,” “Lost,” “Bates Motel” and “The Strain,” is also developing a series based on the classic sci-fi novel “The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” for Hulu.
