Love Story on FX: Actor Noah Fearnley on Playing the Man Before JFK Jr. | Up+Adam

Published 1 month ago
Description

Noah Fearnley joins Adam for a layered, honest conversation about stepping into one of the most complicated roles in modern pop culture. In the new FX series Love Story, executive produced by Ryan Murphy, Noah portrays Michael Bergin, the model turned actor who dated Carolyn Bessette before her whirlwind romance with John F. Kennedy Jr. became American mythology. But this episode goes far beyond headlines. Noah opens up about the responsibility of portraying a real person with respect, what it meant to read Bergin’s memoir The Other Man, and how eerily parallel their Connecticut to New York modeling journeys really were.

The conversation also dives into Noah’s grind in the micro drama world with more than 50 films shot in relentless 12 to 14 hour days, his transition into prestige television, and his theatrical debut in Mercy alongside Chris Pratt. Most powerfully, Noah speaks candidly about mental health, anxiety, imposter syndrome, and why he believes soul matters more than surface. This one moves from Hollywood to human fast, and it is exactly the kind of ICET conversation Up+Adam was built for.

Watch Love Story beginning February 12 on FX and streaming on Hulu.
