SHOWTIME's THE GOOD LORD BIRD
- Joshua Johnson-Lionel has been cast on the upcoming limited series starring Ethan Hawke. He has previously had recurring roles on ABC's Black-ish and TNT's Animal Kingdom.
- He will play Henry Shackleford aka Onion, a mixed-race slave working in a tavern in the Kansas Territory when his father is killed during a confrontation between his slave master and the fervent abolitionist John Brown (Hawke). Mistaking him for a girl, Brown sweeps Onion into his army of Free Staters composed mostly of his many sons, eventually participating in the famous 1859 raid on the Army depot at Harpers Ferry. Brown's raid failed to initiate the slave revolt he intended, but was the instigating event that started the Civil War.
