Barry has come to an end – and if you're curious about what the cast will be up to next, this is the article for you.

If you were like me over the last few years, HBO has become your life. From one of the best fantasy shows out there, House of the Dragon, to the world of The Last of Us coming to life in T.V. form, HBO has amazing shows, and one happens to be Barry.

Created by Bill Hader, Barry was a show about a hitman finding his passion in acting when he went to L.A. for a job, and the drama unfolded from there. Four seasons have come and gone, wrapping up with the Barry finale, and now the actors are all doing new things.

But what movies and T.V. shows should you look out for? Here is what the Barry cast will be up to in the next few years.

Bill Hader (Barry Berkman)

You can't have Barry without Barry himself, played by Bill Hader, who also created the show and wrote, directed and produced episodes. Honestly, Barry is undoubtedly one of Bill Hader's best TV shows.

Hader has done a lot over the years since Barry began. Among that includes appearing in the Lightyear cast, as well as a small cameo role in the Ari Aster film Beau is Afraid. He also held a voice role in the film IF. 

Coming up, Bill Hader will be starring as The Cat in a new The Cat in the Hat adaptation, according to The Hollywood Reporter in March 2024, which already has a release date of March 6, 2026. And now I’m even more excited.

Stephen Root (Monroe Fuches)

Monroe Fuches was one of the most aggravating, annoying characters I have ever had the misfortune to witness on my television screen. And Stephen Root played Barry's old "friend" and later enemy for the whole series excellently.

Root has appeared in various T.V. shows over the last few years aside from Barry, such as a guest starring role on Clone High, Praise Petey, Hamster & Gretel, and more. He also had a small guest role on another hit HBO show, Succession, and had a main role in Master of the Universe: Revelation

Aside from his parts in the last few years, Root will appear in two new films. One will be called Heads of State according to Deadline. He will also star in a new film called Playdate, which was reported by Deadline in April 2024, where he will star alongside Sarah Chalke, Alan Tudyk and more.

Sarah Goldberg (Sally Reed)

Sally was one of the main reasons Barry ended up staying in California in the pilot episode, thanks to how kind she was – and it later ended up becoming her biggest mistake in Barry. Sarah Goldberg brought that character to life with her brilliant acting for all four seasons.

Goldberg has appeared in a few films and TV shows since Barry began, including the TV series Sisters, and the movies The Hummingbird Project, The Report, Rogue Agent, and more.

The Barry actress confirmed she wrapped a new film called We Strangers in an interview with CherryPicks in May 2023, which had its festival debut at South by Southwest in March 2024, according to Deadline. An official release date has not been announced.

Anthony Carrigan (NoHo Hank)

Arguably, NoHo Hank was one of the most memorable characters from Barry, and you can't deny that Anthony Carrigan's performance was as unique as the memorable crime boss. For four seasons, he ruled the streets – with impeccable fashion and hilarious one-liners.

Since Barry began, Carrigan has appeared in movies like Fatherhood, Bill & Ted Face the Music, and Killer Whalers. He has done plenty of voice work, too, like Captain Fall and the fun Scooby-Doo film Trick or Treat Scooby-Doo! In 2024, he appeared in the film McVeigh. 

Like many of his co-stars, Carrigan already has some stuff lined up. His most significant role is that he will play Rex Mason in the upcoming Superman: Legacy cast. Carrigan will also have a role in the upcoming A24 film, Death of a Unicorn, according to Deadline.

And, what’s even more exciting is that he will be in Twisted Metal Season 2, and returning back to TV once more, according to Variety.

Henry Winkler (Gene Cousineau)

Let's be honest and say that Henry Winkler was hands down one of the best additions to the Barry cast from the first time we saw him as Gene Cousineau. In my attempt to catch up to Barry Season 4, he was easily one of my favorite parts.

In addition to his work on Barry, Winkler has done voice acting in shows like Rugrats, The Legend of Vox Machina and Human Resources. He also guest-starred in an episode of Family Guy, and had a guest appearance on the Netflix show, Quarterback. He was also a part of the Black Adam cast, where he played Uncle Al.

So far, there’s nothing announced in terms of movies and TV coming up, but Winkler released a memoir back in 2023, and he’s going on tour for the paperback release of it this year, according to his Twitter, so if you want to meet the iconic actor in person, now’s your chance.

Robert Wisdom (Jim Moss)

Jim Moss was one of those characters that became a significant deal in the later seasons. The father of the Season 1 character, Detective Janice Moss, is one of the reasons why Barry ended up arrested.

Robert Wisdom, who played Jim Moss, appeared in several other TV shows during his time on the series, including Accused and Black Bird. The actor also had a guest role in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. 

According to IndieWire in June 2024, Wisdom will appear in a new film called Dreams & Nightmares, from Shatara Michelle Ford, so keep an eye out for that.

Sarah Burns (Mae Dunn)

The last character to talk about on this list has to be Mae Dunn, who was the detective who took over Janice's case after she died and was one of the prominent people who aided in getting Barry behind bars. Sara Burns played this role.

The actress has appeared in Werewolves Within and Moving On since she began Barry. She also appeared in the 2024 film Unfrosted, and the TV series, Chad. So far she has nothing new coming up, but we’ll be sure to update you when she does.

With such a talented cast, I'm sure it won't be long before we see them all again in incredible movies and T.V. shows. Until then, I'm content just rewatching the series over and over. Here's to Barry, and its excellent four-season run.
