Rueben's Ramblings

On October 18, the new streaming series Looking for Alaska will debut on Hulu.

This 8-episode limited series is based on the John Green novel set in 2005, centering around teenager Miles “Pudge” Halter (Charlie Plummer from Boardwalk Empire), as he enrolls in boarding school to try to gain a deeper perspective on life. He falls in love with Alaska Young (Kristine Froseth from The Society), and finds a group of loyal friends. But after an unexpected tragedy, Miles and his close friends attempt to make sense of what they’ve been through.

The cast includes Ron Cephas Jones (This Is Us), Sofia Vassilieva (Medium) and Uriah Shelton (The Glades) [among others].
