Based on characters created by Erle Stanley Gardner, Matthew Rhys portrayed the title role in the series. In contrast to the 1950s TV series where Mason practiced law, HBO’s adaptation depicts the character during his earlier years as a private investigator in 1930s Los Angeles.
The Season 2 cast featured Matthew Rhys alongside Juliet Rylance, Chris Chalk, Diarra Kilpatrick, Eric Lange, Justin Kirk, Katherine Waterston, Hope Davis, Fabrizio Guido, Peter Mendoza, Mark O’Brien, Paul Raci, Jen Tullock, Jon Chaffin, Onahoua Rodriguez, Jee Young Han, Sean Astin, Tommy Dewey, Shea Whigham, and Wallace Langham.
