After her beloved role as Claire Dunphy in the hit sitcom “Modern Family,” Julie Bowen is back on the small screen in a completely different genre.
The actor is a familiar face in Hollywood, with an impressive resume that spans over two decades. His latest project will showcase his versatility as he takes on a dark character, unlike his previous comedic performances.
Julie Bowen Takes Darker Role In Upcoming Satanic Thriller
In the new series, “Hysteria!,” the star will play Linda Campbell, a mother to a teenage outcast at the center of a series of supernatural disturbances. As Linda investigates the inexplicable events, she begins to question her knowledge of her son and the growing influence of Satanism in their small fictional town.
In an exclusive report by DeadlineMatthew Scott Kane, the show’s writer and executive producer, seeks to delve into America’s troubling past of mass hysteria by telling the gripping story of teenage Satanic Panic.
The series will follow a group of misfits in a 1980s high school who take advantage of the growing fear and paranoia surrounding supernatural activity among teenagers by presenting themselves as a Satanic group.

This becomes horrifying when murders, kidnappings and strange occurrences linked to supernatural activity spark a witch hunt against them. A division of Universal Studio Group, UCP, will produce the series alongside the talented executive producer team of John Francis Daley, Jonathan Goldstein, Chris Bender, and Jake Weiner.
Jordan Vogt-Roberts will direct the first episode, while David A. Goodman will act, write and executive produce. With this team of seasoned professionals behind the scenes, “Hysteria!” ready to be a charming and thrilling addition to the world of television.
Although no other cast members are mentioned, Bowen is also known for her roles on the medical series “ER,” and Lost. But despite her many TV credits, she will mostly be remembered as Claire Dunphy, the lovable and quirky mom from “Modern Family.”
However, it was revealed that she narrowly missed out on the role that won her two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. Bowen was pregnant with twins when she tried out for the part in 2009, and she initially felt insecure about her baby bump during the casting process.
In 2020, the “Boston Legal” star told PEOPLE, “I’m pregnant with twins, and I keep thinking they won’t hire me. They kept bringing me in over and over and staring at my big belly, and I thought, ‘I’m never going to get this job.'”
He was rightfully worried because Marc Freeman revealed in his book, “Modern Family: The Untold Oral History of One of Television’s Groundbreaking Sitcoms,” that big names like Lisa Kudrow and Debra Messing were considered.

However, luck seemed to be on her side as one of the producers said she was a good fit, and in May 2009, she welcomed her twins, Gus and Jon, a few weeks after she landed the role.
Julie Bowen Talks About Her Struggle With An Eating Disorder As A Teen
The American actor was candid about the times when things weren’t so great. In sharing about her teenage battle with an eating disorder, The Blast reports that she also explained how she struggled with puberty.
During her appearance on “The Tamron Hall Show,” she revealed that her aversion to food was caused by her fear of making mistakes and losing control of her emotions. This decision, he admits, always makes him feel hungry.
He further explains that he associates messes, mistakes, and even minor physical imperfections with a lack of self-control and a sense of “too much.” He added:
“to be good means to stay in line—literally and figuratively. Make sure it’s tight. And that’s my attitude: strict. And by the way, that’s not fun. It’s not a fun way to live.”
The mother-of-three insists that her disorder is most likely a “coping mechanism” because hunger causes a loss of sensation that leaves the body “not having time” to eat.
