“The world’s greatest mind is now the most wanted,” teases Apple TV+ in the official trailer for its new series Prime Target starring One Day star Leo Woodall.

In the trailer for the conspiracy thriller released Monday, Woodall stars as an intelligent math postgraduate Edward Brook, who discovers a breakthrough in possibly finding a pattern in prime numbers. Should he succeed, Edward would hold the key to every computer in the world. When his idea catches the attention of dangerous enemies, they move to destroy the idea before it progresses further. Nsa agent Taylah Sanders (played by Quintessa Swindell) has been tasked with watching and reporting on mathematicians’ behavior, but then the two join forces to unravel the government conspiracy Edward has unexpectedly found himself at the center of.

Woodall’s breakout role was in The White Lotus, which won a SAG award for outstanding performance by an ensemble in a drama series.

Updated with trailer: “What if we’re not in control?” That’s a key question posed by Leo Woodall’s Edward Brooks, a brilliant math post graduate student who’s close to making a huge discovery that takes him deep into a government conspiracy.

Exclusive: Following a competitive process, New Regency Television International is joining forces with UK musician and DJ Goldie on TV series Sine Tempore.

Goldie – real name Clifford Price – has spent the best part of a decade conceiving a TV event, in part inspired by his own life story. Set in an unnamed British metropolis in the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s – and infused with the music, fashion and art of the time – the series is described to us as “a sweeping, kinetic story of survival in the city and the shattering fallout of a fated love affair”.

The Revenant and The Beast Must Die producer New Regency is working with Goldie and writer-director Dan Cadan (Walk Like A Panther) on the scripts for the drama, before approaching buyers. Goldie also has an original soundtrack composed for the show.

Ed Rubin and Emma Broughton serve as point executive producers for New Regency Television,...

BritBox, the ITV and BBC joint-venture streamer, has announced that it is developing a second season of its UK drama series The Beast Must Die.

Produced by New Regency Television and Ridley Scott’s Scott Free, BritBox said the first two episodes of the Jared Harris and Cush Jumbo drama have broken viewing records since premiering last week, but the service declined to disclose actual figures.

Vera writer Gaby Chiappe adapted the first season from the 1938 novel of the same name by Nicholas Blake, the nom de plume of poet Cecil Day-Lewis, father of Daniel Day-Lewis. It tells the story of a grieving mother who infiltrates the life of the man she believes killed her son.

Season 2 will be an original story told by Chiappe, which has been titled A Sword in my Bones. It will center on Billy Howle (The Serpent), who is poised to reprise his role as Detective Nigel Strangeways.

Apple TV Plus released a trailer for the second season of comedy “Trying,” which will launch on May 21.

The second season will continue to follow Nikki (Esther Smith) and Jason (Rafe Spall) navigating the adoption process. After being approved by an adoption panel, they now find that matching with a child is not as straightforward as they had hoped. Helped by their eccentric social worker Penny (Imelda Staunton), they are determined to do everything they can. When Nikki meets a little girl called Princess at an adoption event, she knows instantly that this is the child for them. However, there are obstacles to Nikki’s plan that may prove insurmountable. Ophelia Lovibond, Oliver Chris, Sian Brooke, Darren Boyd and Robyn Cara will also return this season.

“Trying” is created, written and executive produced by Andy Wolton, directed and executive produced by Jim O’Hanlon, produced by Sam Pinnell, co-produced by Tim Mannion...

Cush Jumbo has said that shooting The Beast Must Die on the Isle Of Wight last year was the most challenging experience of her career.

The BritBox UK original, which has been acquired by AMC in the U.S., tells the story of a grieving mother who infiltrates the life of the man she believes killed her son.

Jumbo, who has starred in The Good Wife, said on a TCA panel that she has not experienced working on a series like it before — both physically and creatively.

“I feel like I was pushed to my very limit on this job. It’s the most challenging shoot I have ever been on for many reasons. I get cast in a lot of dramas, and people think of me as quite a tough person who deals with the dark things on television, but actually, I’m a bit of a wuss,” she said.

AMC Networks has acquired six-part revenge thriller “The Beast Must Die,” produced in partnership with BritBox UK, New Regency Television International and Ridley Scott’s Scott Free.

The series, based on the novel by Nicholas Blake, centers on a grieving mother who infiltrates the life of the man she thinks murdered her son. The program stars “Chernobyl” and “Mad Men” actor Jared Harris, “The Good Wife’s” Cush Jumbo, as well as Billy Howle, Nathaniel Parker, and Geraldine James.

“The Beast Must Die” will premiere on AMC and streaming platform AMC Plus later this year.

“This series will be something special for AMC and our AMC+ subscribers. It continues a legacy of very successful relationships with the brilliant Jared Harris and our friends at Scott Free, and forges new producing partnerships with BritBox and New Regency Television,” said Dan McDermott, president of original programming for AMC Networks. “The Beast Must Die...

Exclusive: In a highly competitive situation, New Regency Television International has won screen rights to hit BBC Sounds podcast The Missing Cryptoqueen.

The buzzed-about, eight-part podcast was downloaded 3.5 million times in four months last year and reached number one on the UK iTunes charts. The pod delves into the remarkable and ongoing saga of Bulgarian entrepreneur Dr. Ruja Ignatova who in 2014 launched a cryptocurrency called OneCoin. Ignatova set out to rival BitCoin, and hooked investors from 175 countries to the tune of $4 billion. But OneCoin was in fact an enormous scam fuelled by a multi-level marketing scheme. Ignatova disappeared in October 2017 and hasn’t been seen since.

Ignatov’s brother recently pleaded guilty to several counts of fraud in a Us court, while her American lawyer was found guilty of laundering $400 million of the money raised by OneCoin in the Us.
