Why Justin Hartley Thought Milo Ventimiglia's ‘This Is Us’ Role Was for Him


Before Justin Hartley played Kevin on 'This Is Us,' he briefly wondered whether he was meant to play the role of Milo Ventimiglia's Jack

This Is Us, which ran from 2016 to 2022, focused on siblings Kevin (Hartley), Kate ( Chrissy Metz) and Randall ( Sterling K. Brown) in addition to their parents, Jack (Ventimiglia) and Rebecca Pearson ( Mandy Moore). Tracker, which premiered in February 2024, is centered around a survivalist named Colter (Hartley) who travels the country helping people and law enforcement tackle a variety of mysteries. Ventimiglia noted that he “ thought the show was great ” and Hartley had “a fun role,” adding, “Reuniting with him or anyone else from the cast — or anyone from any number of films I’ve done in the last 28, 29 years — I’m sure that’d be a blast.”
