Fellow Travelers – Premiere Date, First Look Promo, First Look Photos + Press Release

Showtime’s limited series “Fellow Travelers,” starring Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey, will premiere this fall. It will first stream on Paramount+ with Showtime plan on October 27, followed by its linear debut on Showtime on October 29 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The series will also launch on Paramount+ in Canada on October 27 and in several international regions on October 28.

Created by Oscar nominee Ron Nyswaner (Philadelphia, Homeland), based on the novel by Thomas Mallon, FELLOW TRAVELERS is an epic love story and political thriller, chronicling the volatile romance of two very different men who meet in McCarthy-era Washington. Matt Bomer plays handsome, charismatic Hawkins Fuller, who maintains a financially rewarding, behind-the scenes career in politics. Hawkins avoids emotional entanglements – until he meets Tim Laughlin (Jonathan Bailey), a young man brimming with idealism and religious faith. They begin a romance just as Joseph McCarthy and Roy Cohn declare war on “subversives and sexual deviants,” initiating one of the darkest periods in 20th-century American history.
