Netflix has shared a new trailer for their upcoming British procedural anthology series Criminal. What makes this series unique is the fact that it take place “exclusively within the confines of a police interview suite.” It is described as “a stripped-down, cat-and-mouse drama that will focus on the intense mental conflict between the police officer and the suspect in question.”
The series is set in France, Spain, Germany, and the U.K., and this trailer gives us our first real look at what’s in store. The series has a great cast that includes David Tennant (Doctor Who) who plays a man “charged with murdering his teen step-daughter. The interrogators’ challenge in this ‘Criminal: UK’ Ep. 1 will be to break down his ‘no comment’ inscrutability.” The series also stars Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter), who is seen in the trailer walking down a corridor as she prepares to be questioned by police.
