“Who are these people trying to kill you?” “My former employers.” Sky TV has unveiled an official trailer for the action series titled Prisoner, an on-the-run thriller filmed in & around Wales. Ready for streaming at the end of this month on Sky TV in the UK – though still not sure when it’ll show up in the US yet. Tahar Rahim (The Serpent, Un Prophète) and Scottish BAFTA award-winner Izuka Hoyle (Boiling Point, Big Boys) star in Prisoner. Not to be confused with the classic UK sci-fi series “The Prisoner” or the Australian series from the 80s also called “Prisoner” – this is an entirely new idea. Prisoner follows Amber, a young prison transport officer tasked with escorting Tibor, a trained killer & high-value inmate, to court to testify against his elite crime syndicate. When their convoy is brutally ambushed, she’s forced to put her life in his hands. As the sole survivors, handcuffed and on the run, they must race to reach their destination alive and on time. Along the way, their uneasy alliance is tested as the syndicate closes in. Trust becomes a weapon and their shackled survival a moral dilemma, forcing Amber to confront how far she’ll go to protect what matters most. Intense! Many new thrillers from the UK recently. The cast includes Leonie Benesch, Finn Bennett, Laurie Davidson, Steven Elder, Jessica Barker-Wren, Daniel Betts and Eddie Marsan. // Continue Reading ›
