What The Actor Who Played Jack Hodgins Has Been Doing Since Bones Ended

When Thyne first stepped away from Bones, he stuck to what he knew: crime. After over a decade of playing Dr. Hodgins, it was probably the easiest path for Thyne to take.

Thyne kicked off his post-Bones career on a little-seen miniseries in the fall of 2017, soon after the Bones series finale. He portrayed a distraught relative on the web-based show Urban Nightmares. The pseudo-documentary delves into the fictional unsolved murder of two police officers using home video-style footage, police "evidence," and interviews. The hard-to-find series aired on the little-known Blackpills web channel.

Two years later, in 2019, Thyne nabbed his highest-profile role since leaving Bones behind: a therapist accused of rape on an episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. On the episode, a woman announces the allegation while Thyne's character is at the altar about to get married — resulting in a topsy-turvy he-said, she-said investigation. While a significant character on that episode of Law & Order: SVU, it was just a one-off appearance.
