Sterling K. Brown teases ‘Paradise’ season 3: ‘So off the wall’

Elsewhere during the panel interview, director Hanelle Culpepper thanked Brown for introducing her to Fogelman and suggesting her as a director for the series. “I just wanted to say thank you to Sterling so much because he is the reason I am here,” Culpepper said. “He is the one who told Dan Fogelman and the producers, ‘You all should meet her. I think she’d be great.’ And so, he brought me into this family and has changed my life.”
