Hugh Laurie turns crime boss for new Apple TV drama 'The Wanted Man'
--------------------------------------------------------------------
A new limited-series crime drama executive-produced and starring
Hugh Laurie is set to ring in the new year on Apple TV.

The eight-episode series follows Felix Carmichael, a crime boss
betrayed by someone inside his own firm. Sent to the notorious
Staplehurst prison, he'll need to resort to brutality if he hopes
to make it out.

This isn't Laurie's first time on Apple TV, either. The "House M.D."
veteran previously joined Apple TV drama "Tehran" during its third
season.

In addition to Laurie, the series also stars Thandiwe Newton
("Westworld"), Fionn Whitehead ("Dunkirk"), Gina McKee
("My Policeman"), Hazel Doup ("Say Nothing"), Elliott Heffernan
("Blitz") and Stephen Dillane ("Game of Thrones"). The series is
created, written, and executive produced by "Hijack" creator
George Kay.

The series will premiere on January 6 with the first two episodes.
Remaining episodes will premiere every Wednesday through February 17.

"Wanted Man" joins other acclaimed Apple TV dramas, such as
"Criminal Record," which saw its second season premiere in April.
