"Black Mirror" meets the pandemic can be one way of describing "Solos," the new anthology series currently on Amazon Prime. The seven, half-hour episodes offer a number of A-list actors — including Anne Hathaway, Anthony Mackie, Helen Mirren, Uzo Aduba, Constance Wu, Nicole Beharie, Dan Stevens and Morgan Freeman — the opportunity to shine in mostly monologues. "Solos is a tale of seven stories," creator David Weil told Deadline earlier this year. "Most of them are future tales — I like to call these future memories, tapestry of different collections of events in these individuals' lives. Each story centers around one or two incredible actors and we get to really mine a beautiful or harrowing, terrifying or heartbreaking moment in their life." Two such actors are Dan Stevens and Morgan Freeman, who appear in the final episode called "Stuart." In it, Stevens plays a man out to help Freeman, who is believed to have lost his memory to dementia. But in doing so Stevens' motives are brought into question. Stevens is best-known for having played Matthew Crawley in the ITV acclaimed period drama series "Downton Abbey." On screen, he has played the Beast in the live action version of "Beauty and the Beast." EDGE spoke to Stevens recently about the show. Tap link in bio to continue on @EDGEmedianetwork ???
