The two aren’t close, not having grown up together, and the younger Schreiber has charted his own path, winning Tony and Emmy nominations on his way to Hollywood fame

Can’t get enough of Tag Winbury, the dashing serial adulterer from Netflix’s murder mystery The Perfect Couple? Well, there’s more where that came from.

Actor Liev Schreiber, 56, who plays Tag, has a half-brother 10 years younger than him, Pablo Schreiber, who is gearing up to take on the streaming platform’s next big novel adaptation.

The younger Schreiber has been tapped for a six-episode series adaptation of Alice Feeney’s psychological thriller novel, His & Hers. Westworld star Tessa Thompson has been cast in the lead role of Anna, a news anchor, while Schreiber will be playing Richard, Anna’s cameraman as she follows a murder case in the sleepy town of Dahlonega. Jon Bernthal will also appear, playing detective Jack Harper, Anna’s estranged husband.
