The plot of Never Have I Ever reads as: "Indian American teenager Devi Vishwakumar copes with the sudden death of her father while also navigating complicated relationships with her family members, romantic interests and peers at her high school in L.A.'s Sherman Oaks neighborhood."
For season three, which premiered just this week on 12 August, Deacon stars as Parker, a friend of Devi's new love interest Des and a member of her school's rival debate team.
Mindy opened up about her decision to cast the 18-year-old during the premiere, revealing just how much Reese had to do with it.
She told Variety that she chose him for the role after the Big Little Lies actress informed Mindy of her son's interest in acting. She explained: "We were breaking the season and there was this role that seemed like it would be perfect for Deacon."
