Former Victorious star Avan Jogia is returning to TV! He is set to star in the upcoming Starz series Now Apocalypse.
The show is created by indie filmmaker Gregg Araki and executive produced by Steven Soderbergh, the show follows Ulysses (Jogia), a millennial stoner โstruggling to figure out his life in the surreal and bewildering city of Los Angeles.โ
The series also stars Kelli Berglund, Beau Mirchoff, Roxane Mesquida, Tyler Posey, and Jacob Artist, all in the thick of their own unapologetic โquests pursuing love, sex,

Jogia spoke with TV Line about his role.
โHeโs a sexual astronaut, heโs exploring. Sexuality is a spectrum, and he moves around it. He definitely has the realms in which heโs most comfortable, but heโs also down to try new stuff out. I like playing a character thatโs asking a different question about sexuality, even blurring of the lines of sexuality. Itโs not so cut and dry. We can explore many things all at the same time. There arenโt enough characters doing that in movies or on TV.โ

The show explores the damage that apps like Grindr and Tindr have inflicted on LAโs already fragile dating scene. The show also features aliens.
One thing that Avan does know is that his sex scenes with Tyler Posey are definitely going to make the rounds of the internet.

โWeโre going to make the splash page of Pornhub, Iโm sure. Some of those scenes are going to be up there, I can feel it. And weโre going to be gifโd
to death. The guys on this show have definitely been on other shows where theyโve been gifโd and used in, like, Tumblr fantasies. So at least itโs within a wheelhouse that weโre all a little familiar with.โ
The show delves into a lot of different aspects of sexuality.

โAll of the sexuality on the show is joyful and celebrated and everyone has agency,โ Jogia says. โThereโs no darkness to the sexuality. We explore sexuality as a positive, not as this guilt-ridden threat that I think so much of American television and American cinema has. I was happy to be a part of a show that doesnโt use sexuality for anything other than positivity and joy.โ
