Kingston Rumi Southwick on Filming ’Widow’s Bay’ in Massachusetts, Hopes for Season 2
The young actor dishes on the sleeper TV hit of the 2026 season: “What 'Widow's Bay' did really well was it took those horror tropes made it its own.”
Widow’s Bay has prevailed as the sleeper hit of 2026, and Kingston Rumi Southwick can’t wait for season two.
“It’s so much fun,” the 18-year-old tells The Hollywood Reporter on a recent Zoom. “I’m glad people are connecting to it.”
The actor plays Evan, son to Matthew Rhys’ Tom, in the Apple TV horror comedy series. Created by Katie Dippold, Widow’s Bay is set in a fictional — and very much cursed — New England island town and centers around Tom, the town’s mayor.
Apple's biggest thriller of 2026 is so good it's already been renewed for season 2
'Season two is about how everything is great on the island and there’s nothing to worry about'
Widow's Bay is one of the biggest hits of the year. The TV show, created by Katie Dippold, wrapped its first season last week. Apple TV has greenlit the series for a second season. In fact, the show has been so well received that its renewal was announced before it's finale even aired.
The series follows mayor Tom Loftis (Matthew Rhys) as he struggles to revive the community of Widow's Bay, a New England island town whose residents believe is haunted by a centuries' old curse. As the series progresses and Loftis tries to get the Wi-Fi to work and tourists to visit, his skepticism begins to be challenged, with some of the town's stories and myths appearing to come true.

5 TV Shows Like Widow's Bay You Need To Watch
You might've missed the ferry already, but the biggest show to come out of Apple TV lately has been the brilliant horror comedy series "Widow's Bay." Somewhere between a Stephen King novel and a "Parks and Recreation" episode (fitting, given that it's created by the sitcom's writer and co-producer, Katie Dippold) sits this brilliant series that's done well with critics across the board for its first season.
Now, though, with the Season 1 finale released and a lengthy wait for our return trip back to the freaky island, you're going to need something else to fill the void, and we've thankfully got plenty of alternatives for you to get stuck into. Should you want some more frights than funnies this time around, or at least little laughs here and there as the horror unfolds, then worry not.
