Darin Toonder: Grand Theft Floral & Primetime Television (Interview)
Description
How do you transition from dominating local recreation leagues to navigating a post-apocalyptic political thriller or avoiding the Ozark cartels? You ask Darin Toonder.
This week on Entertain This!, we sit down with an incredibly versatile actor whose face you’ve undoubtedly seen on some of the biggest shows on television. We dive deep into his stacked resume, discussing what it’s like to bounce from the comedic perfection of Parks and Rec and Modern Family to the gritty tension of Ozark, his role as Agent Melvin Rainey in Hulu's Paradise, and his latest turn in the wild new supernatural horror movie, Obsession.
But acting is only half the story.
Before he was sharing scenes with Hollywood’s elite, Darin was building a legacy in a much more cutthroat arena: adult league softball. We also get a legendary tale on his rose-stealing abilities (yes, you read that right).
Grab your sunflower seeds and a cold drink—it’s time to talk shop, sports, and petty floral theft.
