What did Danny McBride say about The Righteous Gemstones ending?
“The Lord spoke to me and said it’s time to wrap this sucker up,” McBride said. “The story this season made the themes, ideas, and characters in ‘The Righteous Gemstones’ feel whole and complete. I have loved every second of working with this team for the past eight years, and there are some incredible payoffs, twists, and turns in store over the course of this wild final season.”
McBride also plays Jesse Gemstone in the satirical comedy show, while the cast further includes Adam DeVine as Kelvin Gemstone, Edi Patterson as Judy Gemstone, John Goodman as Elijah “Eli” Gemstone, Walton Goggins as Baby Billy Freeman, Tony Cavalero as Keefe Chambers, Cassidy Freeman as Amber Gemstone, Greg Alan Williams as Martin Imari, Tim Baltz as Benjamin Jason “BJ” Barnes, and Skyler Gisondo as Gideon Gemstone.
The synopsis for the series reads, “From Danny McBride (HBO’s Vice Principals), this critically acclaimed comedy follows a world-famous televangelist family with a long tradition of deviance, greed, and charitable work. Left flailing in the wake of their patriarch Eli Gemstone’s (John Goodman) semi-retirement, Season 3 finds Jesse (McBride), Judy (Edi Patterson), and Kelvin (Adam Devine) in charge of the vast Gemstone empire. When their long-lost cousins come out of the woodwork, the siblings must work together if they want to keep the Gemtsone legacy intact. An irreverent look at the lives of holy rollers, The Righteous Gemstones explores the salacious world of those who offer salvation… to the highest bidder.”
McBride executive producers the series alongside Jody Hill, David Gordon Green, John Carcieri, Jeff Fradley, and Brandon James. Jonathan Watson serves as a co-executive producer, while David Brightbill is a producer and Kevin Barnett, Chris Pappas, and Patterson are consulting producers.
