It’s time to get Sterling K. Brown in a musical. The charismatic actor joined The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last week, chatting about his wildly popular new show, Paradise. Brown, who stars as Xavier Collins on the Hulu series, opened up about his connection with co-star James Marsden and their musical tendencies on set.
“He likes to sing,” Brown said of the former X-Men actor. “He’ll hear me just sort of humming something. I only do the melody, but he will come in with the harmony. And, like, really. He kills it every time.” Brown went on to reveal that he is a huge fan of the musical theater genre.
When pressed by Colbert, the American Fiction actor revealed that his go-to song is “For Good” from the musical — and soon to be second part of the movie — Wicked. After a bit of cajoling from the host, Brown delighted the crowd with a few lines from the song.
