Hot off the heels of the extremely popular The Falcon and the Winter Soldier for Disney+, Sebastian Stan has been tapped for a new series at another streaming service as a completely different type of leather-clad bad boy.
Stan is set to play Tommy Lee in the upcoming Hulu docu-series Pam & Tommy, which will focus on the pair’s tumultuous relationship throughout the 1990s. Stan recently posted a picture of himself in character to his Instagram account where he can be seen in leather pants and a goatee, his arms covered in tattoos. Check out the image below.

Tommy Lee is best known as the drummer for the heavy metal band Mötley Crüe, whose hit songs “Dr. Feelgood” and “Girls, Girls, Girls” rocketed them to stardom in the 1980s.
Starring alongside Stan in the series is Lily James, who first found success in a role on the hit BBC show Downton Abbey before going on to star in the live-action Cinderella reboot for Disney and as Elizabeth Bennett in the adaptation of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. James will be portraying Pamela Anderson in the series. Anderson is best remembered for playing CJ Parker in Baywatch, a show about lifeguards that also starred David Hasselhoff, in the 90s. Anderson also went on to star in the 1996 film Barb Wire, based on the Dark Horse Comics series of the same name.
Another image on Stan’s Instagram shows him as Tommy and James as Pam, in which they…really get into their roles.

Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee became tabloid darlings in the 90s because of their whirlwind relationship. Having met in ’94, they married a year later, and soon after they really became a hot-button topic when a sex tape featuring the couple was stolen from their home and sold to the media. After that, they faced some rough times in their marriage, which eventually ended in divorce in 1998, though they tried to reconcile things numerous times over the years.
Pam & Tommy will also star Nick Offerman, Andrew Dice Clay, as well as Seth Rogen, who will play the man who stole the sex tape, Rand Gauthier. The show has not yet been given an official release date.
