She’s Gotta Have It‘s Lyriq Bent is set for a key recurring role opposite Anna Paquin on Showtime’s The Affair. Bent plays Paul, the husband of Joanie (Paquin), sports agent and father of their two daughters. He struggles to keep his wife from falling off the cliff of depression, as they get closer and closer to a terrifying inevitability. Season five will chronicle the aftermath of the season finale’s horrific events and find the characters coming to terms with the consequences of their choices – as they make the realization that if they really want to change their futures, they must first, face the past. Bent is known for his role as Jamie Overstreet on Netflix’s She’s Gotta Have It, which is going into its second season on Netflix. Bent also starred in Acrimony for Lionsgate and in Nappily Ever After, which is currently streaming on Netflix. He’s repped by Buchwald, The Associates Talent & Literary Management in Toronto and managed by Gorav Seth.
