The show may be called Big Love, but there’s no love lost between Bill Paxton’s character and the one played by Canadian Adam Beach.
The fourth season of Big Love, which stars Paxton as polygamist Bill Henrickson, debuts Sunday on HBO Canada. Beach is on hand to play Tommy Flute, the son of Bill’s Indian Gaming Casino partner, and Tommy really doesn’t trust Bill – in some ways, with good reason.
“We might have a problem – you,” a menacing Tommy tells Bill after receiving news that the FBI has visited the tribal offices to sniff around Bill’s financial activities. Obviously, the reservation hierarchy doesn’t want to get dragged into anything messy, and messiness just seems to follow Bill around.
Academy Award winner Sissy Spacek also will be a guest-star later in the season.
