Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo are set to star as dueling detectives in Criminal Record, a crime drama premiering on Apple TV+ in a few weeks.
The trailer for the series dropped Thursday, offering an early look at the eight-episode series.
Detectives clash in Criminal Record on Apple TV+
Apple TV+ makes top-notch crime dramas with big-name actors, like Truth Be Told starring Octavia Spencer and Defending Jacob starring Chris Evans. There’s about to be a new addition.
Criminal Record is a character-driven thriller set in contemporary London, with detectives in a tug-of-war over a murder conviction.
Apple’s synopsis says:
“An anonymous phone call draws two brilliant detectives into a confrontation over an old murder case — one a young woman in the early stages of her career, the other a well-connected man determined to protect his legacy. “
Apple also said “the series touches on issues of race, institutional failure, and the quest to find common ground in a polarized Britain.”

Oscar-winner Peter Capaldi has had a lengthy career, but is perhaps best known for playing the 12th incarnation of the Doctor in Doctor Who. Cush Jumbo earned a Critics Choice Award nomination as best supporting actress in The Good Fight.
