Check out the official trailer for the upcoming British action series "Alex Rider," which is based on Anthony Horowitz's best-selling books about the adventures of a teenage super-spy.
The eight-episode series -- executive produced by Horowitz himself with a co-producing collaboration between Eleventh Hour Films and Sony Pictures Television -- stars British actor Otto Farrant (from the mini-series "War & Peace" and "The White Queen") as the title character, Alex Rider, who is a young gifted kid who is recruited by MI6 to work undercover as a spy on a dangerous mission to take down an evil global network.
The series also co-stars Stephen Dillane (Game of Thrones, John Adams), Vicky McClure (This Is England) and Andrew Buchan (Broadchurch) while playing Alex Rider's closest friends are Brenock O'Connor (Game of Thrones), Marli Siu (Anna and the Apocalypse), and Ronkẹ Adekoluẹjo (Christopher Robin).
"Alex Rider: the TV series" is coming soon, premiering sometime later in the year. Watch the trailer, above.
synopsis:
When Alex Rider learns that his Uncle Ian was killed in the line of duty as a British spy -- and not a car accident like he's been told -- everything changes for this otherwise normal teen. Alex is soon approached by Alan Blunt, head of a top-secret offshoot of MI6 known as The Department, who reveals that he's been unknowingly trained since childhood for the dangerous world of espionage. Pressured to leave his old life behind, Alex goes undercover to investigate the connection between the deaths of two billionaires and a remote boarding school called Point Blanc. Upon arrival, he discovers that the students are subjects in the megalomaniacal school director's plan led to gain control of their families' business empires. Aided by his classmate Kyra, best friend Tom, and his au pair Jack, Alex exposes the plot's global network and begins his career as MI6's youngest covert asset.
starring Otto Farrant, Brenock O'Connor, Stephen Dillane, Vicky McClure, Andrew Buchan, Ronkẹ Adekoluẹjo, Katrin Vankova, Talitha Wing, Nathan Clarke, Marli Siu, Earl Cave, Yani Xander, Ace Bhatti, Nyasha Hatendi
