Netflix’s latest political thriller, titled “Hostage“, has now landed on the platform, waiting for you to dive in and make it your next binge-watching series!
In a five-episode narrative, we follow the captivating tale of a fictitious British prime minister named Abigail Dalton. Her husband mysteriously disappears, which is why this series has earned the description of being “suspenseful” from the leading streaming service.
As a devoted fan, I’m thrilled to share that the compelling drama, “Hostage,” is penned by Matt Charman, who co-wrote the critically acclaimed and Oscar-winning “Bridge of Spies.” Not only does he bring his exceptional storytelling skills to the table, but Suranne Jones, renowned for her stellar work in “Vigil,” has also joined forces as an executive producer. But that’s not all – she graces our screens with a captivating performance in the leading role. This promises to be an unforgettable cinematic experience!
What to Read Next
Corey Mylchreest is present too, fresh from sharing lead roles in Netflix’s heartbreaking romance movie “My Oxford Year.” Previously, he also appeared alongside others in the “Bridgerton” series spin-off titled “Queen Charlotte.
In this scenario, Julie Delpy portrays Vivienne Toussaint, a fictional French president, who coincidentally is in the UK during a kidnapping incident. Subsequently, she becomes the target of blackmailing events.
The summary proposes a challenging situation in which they must cooperate, as their political careers and lives are at stake. Can they join forces to expose the conspiracy that endangers them both?
The rest of the actors include Lucian Msamati (known from ‘Gangs of London’), Ashley Thomas (from ‘In Flight’), Sophie Robertson (featured in ‘Miss Scarlet and The Duke’) and Hiftu Quasem (recognized from ‘The Rig’).
Based on our previous suggestion, you should definitely consider adding “Hostage” to your viewing schedule this week. With just five captivating episodes, we expect you won’t spend too much time binge-watching it.
This week, “Hostage” isn’t the only suspenseful show capturing attention on UK streaming services. In fact, Amazon Prime Video’s spy series “Butterfly” has been steadily rising in the top 10 charts since its debut on August 13th.
As a devoted fan, I’d like to highlight a gripping series spearheaded by Daniel Dae Kim, titled “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit – City of Angels.” In this thrilling saga, I find myself in the shoes of a former US intelligence officer, now residing in South Korea. However, my peaceful life is disrupted as I’m hunted by an elusive assassin, promising an adrenaline-pumping adventure from start to finish.
The latest print edition of Digital Spy’s magazine, featuring Oasis – Live in ’25’, is available now! You can purchase it from your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
