From Atlanta to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Zazie Beetz (Invincible, Black Mirror) will be back on your television screen…soon.
According to multiple reports, actress Zazie Beetz is set to play the role of FBI agent Saga Bauer in the forthcoming Apple TV+ series inspired by the work of author Lars Kepler. Led by showrunners Rowan Joffe and John Hlavin and starring Stephen Graham, Liev Schreiber, and Beetz, the series will follow a homicide detective playing a deadly game of cat and mouse with a serial killer on the loose.
“Jonah Lynn (Schreiber), an ex-soldier turned homicide detective, tired of working the tough streets of Philadelphia, moves to a small town in western Pennsylvania for a quiet life. But as the town and his family come under attack from the diabolically cunning serial killer Jurek Walter (Graham), Jonah must protect all that he holds dear,” the show’s description reads. “When the desperate search for Jurek’s last missing victim forces Jonah to send his adopted daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer (Beetz), up against Jurek, how far will Jonah go?”
Emmy Award Winner Tim Van Patten, who has 20 episodes of The Sopranos, The Wire, and Game of Thrones, will direct the first two episodes of the untitled series.
