The Sympathizer has been quietly earning a loyal audience, and right now it's all available in Australia on Foxtel Now and HBO Max, and in the US on HBO Max Amazon Channel and YouTube TV. Hoa Xuande leads a cast that brings something genuine to every episode.
The set pieces are impressive, but it's the story underneath them that gives The Sympathizer its staying power. Near the end of the Vietnam War, a spy who was embedded in the South Vietnam army flees to the United States and takes up residence in a refugee community, where he continues to gather intelligence and report back to the Viet Cong. Hoa Xuande and Robert Downey Jr. Lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2024.
Action fans who want craft and story alongside the spectacle will find The Sympathizer exactly that — the same energy as Planet of the Apes with its own distinct identity.
