Interview with Josh McKenzie of “The Hunting Party” on NBC by Suzanne 3/6/26
It’s always great to speak with Josh. He is very nice and laughs easily. I appreciate anyone who laughs at my jokes! đ Seriously, I love his role on this series because he’s always right in the thick of the action, but he’s also a good dramatic actor who can show all of the emotions needed for this part. He has a lot of story coming up, where we learn more about his past. Don’t miss it! It airs Thursdays on NBC or Peacock. This show is so fun to watch because the story moves fast, there are lots of killers and conspiracy, and the characters are riveting.
