When you think of Morgan Freeman, TV is not the first thing to come to mind; Freeman’s legendary movies are. However, that’s starting to change, because following his first season on "Lioness," he was upgraded to a regular for Season 2 – which is the first time that’s ever happened to him. Now, he’s opening up about why he joined the Paramount+ series, and his answer makes complete sense.
As you well know if you follow any of the "Yellowstone" shows or Taylor Sheridan’s various other series, the list of A-listers he has roped in for them is remarkable. The cast of "Lioness" is no exception, either. Led by Zoë Saldaña, it also features Nicole Kidman, Michael Kelly and, of course, Freeman. While speaking to TV Insider about his part in the drama, "The Shawshank Redemption" star explained why he said yes to it, and his two-word answer mirrors the reason why just about everyone decides to join these projects.
