Where was season four of The Following going to go? What would be the future of Ryan Hardy? Would he ever meet his child? These are all questions that were left in the air after the finale, but Alexi Hawley, the show’s EP broke it all down for us. Warning: spoilers ahead.
I’m still in a post-The Following hangover recovery, but I’m ready for something new. I had to say goodbye to Revenge, but I’m ready for Ryan Murphy murder back in my life. Don’t you agree? Here’s your quick guide to TV coming up (and for a refresher of everything picked up and canceled, here’s our scorecard.)
We all knew it was happening, but the end of Joe Carroll was the end of an era on The Following — not just for fans, but for James Purefoy himself. Luckily, we got to chat with him after the episode and I hate to break it to y’all — but Joe’s really gone.
Based on the book by Joe Lansdale, Sundance TV will soon begin filming a six-episode series, Hap and Leonard. James Purefoy, whose time on The Following, sadly came to an end on April 27, has been named the lead character Hap, a laborer who works on a plantation farm after years in federal prison for refusing to be drafted into the Vietnam War. Luckily, he has his best friend Leonard on his side.
The Following is throwing us more shockers, and Joe’s execution day proved that things are becoming more intense for Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) and Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon). Major developments occurred in the tenth episode of season three — and some closure also came about following a shocking death. Find out who died!
“What took you so long?” That’s the question Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) asked Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon) at the shocking end of last week’s two-hour special, but what’s next for the arch enemies? Well, Ryan needs a favor — and Joe never does anything without thinking of himself first. Plus, meet the brand new villain ready to terrorize NYC!
If we know anything about The Following, it’s that no one can ever just be happy (oh and that Joe Carroll’s never actually gone). The premiere showed just that — Max (Jessica Stroup) and Mike (Shawn Ashmore)’s romance was cut short, and she’s moved on to Tom (Gbenga Akinnagbe). We saw the awkward tension in the season premiere — and there’s a lot more of that to come.
The wait is finally over! The Following returns to Fox on March 2 and trust me — you’re going to want to tune in for this premiere. Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) may be behind bars, but we all know that doesn’t mean anything. So, what’s in store for Ryan Hardy (Kevin Bacon)? Luckily, HollywoodLife.com sat down with both Kevin and James to get to the bottom of the season.
Season three of The Following is less than a month away and basically, we’re on the edge our seats. In a brand new promo photo, exclusive to HollywoodLife.com, we see the powerful threesome, Max (Jessica Stroup), her uncle Ryan (Kevin Bacon) and of course, her now-ex, Mike Weston (Shawn Ashmore).
Season two of the most deliciously disturbing show on TV, The Following comes to an end on April 28, but first, James Purefoy revealed what his terrifying character Joe Carroll is hoping for when he finally finds Claire (Natalie Zea).
When it comes to Emma (Valorie Curry), there was nothing that Joe Carroll (James Purefoy) could do wrong. No matter what, she stood by him. So after her brutal murder, how will he react to the news on the April 28th season finale? HollywoodLife.com spoke to the woman behind the character to get the scoop on what we can expect from that explosive finale of The Following.
It’s hard to keep all of Joe Carroll (James Purefoy)’s followers straight on The Following, and on the newest episode, we were introduced the dressed-in-red clan. The video below gives you a look of what went down on set while Joe was “testing some of the new followers,” as Agent Mike Weston (Shawn Ashmore) says.

Fox’s Kevin Bacon-starrer The Following is never going to hook you if you’re not a horror fan. But I am a horror fan — a huge one, in fact — and even I thought that Season 1 of The Following had major chinks in its armor. But Kevin Williamson is a great producer, and the show’s dynamic Season 2 premiere is a giant step in the right direction. Here are five reasons why The Following is better this time around.
The Following star Annie Parisse spoke EXCLUSIVELY with HollywoodLife.com about the future of the her character on the hit show — even though she was buried alive on the season finale.
