Criminal Teaser Features David Tennant & Hayley Atwell in for Questioning
Can Netflix have David Tennant and Hayley Atwell just stare bug-eyed straight into a camera and still get you hyped for an original series ? The answer is…apparently yes, hard yes, and the proof is right here in the form of the cast announcement for the streaming service’s Criminal. Created by George Kay (Killing Eve) and Jim Field Smith (Wrecked), the show, which has been described as a “stripped down, cat-and-mouse drama”, takes place across 12 episodes and four countries—Spain, Germany, France, and the U.K.—with the events taking place solely in a police interrogation room. The episodes will be 45 minutes long, with each country getting three episodes apiece.
It’s definitely an intriguing, experimental idea with a big talented cast that still raises more questions than answers. How do you keep a show visual interesting when it’s set inside rooms that are literally designed to be visually uninteresting ? Is David Tennant getting enough sleep ? Is there any way this can be as good as the Brooklyn Nine-Nine episode set in an interrogation room that got Sterling K. Brown an Emmy nomination ?
I suppose we’ll find out. Until then, check out the cast announcement teaser below. Criminal premieres on Netflix this Autumn.
