Netflix’s Criminal trailer: One chance to uncover the truth
Netflix has released the franchise trailer for their upcoming police interrogation drama Criminal which is made up of an international cast led by David Tennant (Doctor Who) and Hayley Atwell (Agent Carter) in guest-starring roles. Created by showrunners George Kay (Killing Eve) and Jim Field Smith (The Wrong Mans), the series is scheduled to make its debut on September 20. Check out the video in the player below!
Criminal has a particularly unique premise, by only showing what takes place exclusively within the confines of a police interview suite. This makes for a stripped down, cat-and-mouse drama that will focus on the intense mental showdown between the cop and the suspect in question.

Despite its stripped-down setting, the scope of Criminal will reach across the globe, as the procedural will be comprised of 12 unique stories set in four different countries: France, Spain, Germany and the UK. Each of the 12 episodes, all 45 minutes in length, will be in the local language of the country it takes place in, as well as be written and directed by local creatives.
