Dominic Monaghan Joins Crackle Series ‘The Unknown’

EXCLUSIVE: Dominic Monaghan has been cast as the narrator of Crackle‘s original horror-thriller anthology series The Unknown, which launches later this year on the Sony TV-owned multiplatform network. Monaghan (Lost, The Lord Of The Rings trilogy) will play a blogger who chronicles the unexplained phenomenon that occurs in each of the six half-hour episodes. Frances Fisher, William Atherton, Taryn Manning, Jay Ferguson, and Christina Pickles have signed on for the stand-alone episodes so far. Crackle’s first longform scripted show marks the latest push to expand its original longer-form series, joining such original content as drama Urban Wolf, comedy Backwash and the live-action/animated hybrid Issues. Chris Collins (Sons Of Anarchy) and former LucasFilm executive Steve Tzirlin are executive producing Unknown.

Dominic Monaghan starred in two of the most successful film and television franchises of the past decade.

But that doesn’t mean the “Lord of the Rings” and “Lost” actor is above appearing in a low-budget indie film like “The Day.”

“I obviously don’t approach a job based on the size of the budget,” Monaghan said. “It’s about working on a script you enjoy.

“You’re running and gunning a little more, just making things happen and flying by the seat of your pants but everyone is still super professional.”
