Sam Asghari — actor, Instagram star and Britney Spears’ boyfriend — has of late been getting conspicuous attention on television. He was featured prominently in the premiere of HBO Max’s “Hacks,” and now has a recurring role on Season 3 of Showtime’s comedy “Black Monday,” which makes its debut on Sunday. “Black Monday,” created by David Caspe and Jordan Cahan, stars Don Cheadle, Regina Hall and Andrew Rannells; on the show, Asghari, 27, plays Giancarlo, a plaything for Tiffany (Casey Wilson), and a model for her label, Pfaffashions.
“Black Monday” will feature Asghari in four of its 10 episodes this season, and in an eye-catching first scene, Giancarlo and Tiff have sex as she bickers with her gay husband, Blair (Rannells), a freshman Congressman she keeps on a tight financial leash.
You make quite an entrance in your “Black Monday” role. How did you get that part?
It was such a quick audition — a couple of lines.
