Скачать или смотреть Griffin Matthews on YOU Season 5: “Would I Keep a Serial Killer’s Secret?”

In this exclusive BlackTree TV interview, host Jamaal Finkley sits down with actor, playwright, and activist Griffin Matthews to discuss his standout role in Season 5 of Netflix’s YOU — where he plays a shunned yet compelling member of the powerful Lockwood family.

Griffin opens up about how his own experiences navigating race and identity — including being in an interracial marriage with composer Matt Gould — shaped his connection to the role. We also dive into the chilling hypothetical: Would he keep a secret if his friend turned out to be a serial killer?

The conversation turns global as Griffin reflects on his time in the Peace Corps in West Africa, how it inspired his acclaimed stage musical Witness Uganda, and how those experiences inform his perspective on current political instability in countries like Burkina Faso under Ibrahim Traoré. He also speaks truthfully about whether systemic racism in the theater world has improved as he’s moved into television success.

This is Griffin Matthews like you’ve never seen him — honest, layered, and deeply aware of the world around him.
