Actress Thandiwe Newton, known for her role in “Line of Duty,” will be teaming up with former “House” star Hugh Laurie in Apple TV+’s suspenseful series titled “The Wanted Man.
In the upcoming series by George Kay, who created “Hijack”, we find ourselves focusing on the character of Felix Carmichael, a mysterious and influential figure, who heads the infamous British crime organization known as The Capital.
After a relentless 20-year pursuit, Carmichael is finally captured and incarcerated at the notorious Staplehurst Penitentiary, according to the plot summary.
After getting arrested, the gangster discovers that one of his associates has turned on him, forcing him to devise a bold strategy for an escape if he aims to reclaim authority over his criminal organization.
With the betrayer planning to destroy Carmichael’s accomplishments, our hero stands prepared to take any measure, regardless of the consequences – including returning to a life as a fugitive once more.
