Overview

  • Fox set a 12-episode order with plans to air the series in the 2026–27 season.
  • Stephen Fry wrote the pilot and will star and executive produce, with revisions by Bill Harper and Matt Pyken that sources say helped secure the pickup.
  • Paul McGuigan will direct, with executive producers including Anonymous Content, Neil Burger, and Likely Story’s Anthony Bregman and Miriam Mintz.
  • The drama follows former MI6 agent Conrad Henry, who uses behavioral interrogation techniques to unlock the minds of dangerous criminals.
  • Produced by Lionsgate Television and Fox Entertainment Studios, the project is Fox’s second scripted series order for 2026–27 after its Baywatch reboot and aligns with its direct-to-series strategy.
