Apple TV+ has unveiled a glimpse at ‘Criminal Record,’ its upcoming eight-episode crime thriller starring Academy Award and BAFTA winner Peter Capaldi and Laurence Olivier Award and Critics Choice Award nominee Cush Jumbo as detectives in a tug of war over a high-profile murder case.
From BAFTA Award nominee Paul Rutman (“Vera,” “Indian Summers”), the crime thriller is a powerful, character-driven drama set in the heart of contemporary London. An anonymous phone call draws two brilliant detectives into a confrontation over an old murder case – one a young woman in the early stages of her career, the other a well-connected man determined to protect his legacy. The series touches on issues of race, institutional failure and the quest to find common ground in a polarized Britain.
Starring Capaldi as ‘Detective Chief Inspector Daniel Hegarty’ and Jumbo as ‘Detective Sergeant June Lenker,’ the cast of “Criminal Record” also features Charlie Creed-Miles, Dionne Brown, Shaun Dooley, Stephen Campbell-Moore, Zoë Wanamaker, Rasaq Kukoyi, Maisie Ayres, Aysha Kala, BAFTA TV Award winner Cathy Tyson and Tom Moutchi.
The series will make its global debut on Apple TV+ with the first two episodes on Friday, January 12, 2024, followed by new episodes every Friday through February 23.
