Shawn Hatosy Interview On Southland's New Season, Getting Scratched By Ben McKenzie

Shawn Hatosy has well over 50 television and film credits under his belt, but these days he's known as Detective Bryant on TNT’s hit series Southland. Hatosy has been hitting the streets of Los Angeles for the fifth season of the show. “I think that the character Sammy Bryant is dealing with his partner, who is continuing to exhibit shady behavior,” he told Uinterview exclusively, “so I think that’s one of the most prominent elements of season five.”



Hatosy, 37, who was born in rural Maryland, knew he wanted to be a actor from a young age. He first appeared on the television series Homicide: Life on the Street in 1995 and moved to New York to act full-time. His most recent film credits include Public Enemies in 2009 starring alongside Johnny Depp, Channing Tatum and Christian Bale.

Southland airs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET on TNT.
