Better known for his comedic roles like City Slickers or romantic comedies such as When Harry Met Sally…, Crystal excels in this slick 10-episode psychological thriller. Crystal plays a child psychiatrist, Eli, who has recently been widowed. While still grieving, he treats a boy named Noah who appears to have a mysterious connection to Eli’s own past. As Eli continues to try to help Noah, the bond that ties them together tightens.

Before also stars Judith Light, Jacobi Jupe, Rosie Perez, Maria Dizzia and Ava Lalezarzadeh. It is executive produced by executive produced by Crystal, Academy Award winner Eric Roth and creator Sarah Thorp.

Light plays Eli’s late wife, Linda, who was supposedly the love of his life, but as he digs into her hidden life he soon finds that she is haunting him from the grave.

Before marks the second time Crystal has played a psychiatrist, having infamously treated Robert de Niro’s mafia character in 1999’s Analyze This.
