DIRECTV, in association with Entertainment One (eOne) and
Greenroom Entertainment, announced today that on August 22
production will commence in Vancouver on 10 episodes of the
suspense-drama ROGUE, starring Thandie Newton
(Mission Impossible 2, Crash) and Marton Csokas (The Debt,
Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring). The series will air
on DIRECTV’s Audience Network next summer 2013.
ROGUE revolves around Grace (Newton), a morally and
emotionally conflicted undercover detective who is tormented by the
possibility that her own actions contributed to her son’s death.
Grace’s search for the truth is further complicated by her
forbidden relationship with Jimmy (Csokas), the crime boss who may
have played a hand in the crime. A smart, complex, character-led
thriller, the show explores loss, grief, identity, family bonds,
second chances and redemption. Both Grace and Jimmy not only
struggle with who they are, they also struggle with who they want
to be. Both cross the line – morally, emotionally, sexually – with
devastating consequences for their own lives and those around
them.
DIRECTV expands on its commitment to offer quality, exclusive
programming to its customers after establishing great success in
providing a home and new creative life to Emmy-winning series such
as Damages and Friday Night Lights, and exclusive, first-run series
like Hit & Miss, Underbelly and The Slap.
A Canada-UK coproduction, ROGUE is executive produced by
renowned UK producer/director Nick Hamm for Greenroom
Entertainment; John Morayniss and Michael Rosenberg for eOne; and
Steven Marrs from Momentum Entertainment Group, who also helped
broker the deal with DIRECTV. Series creator Matthew Parkhill (The
Caller) also serves as writer and supervising producer.
In addition to Newton and Csokas, the cast includes Ian
Hart (Luck), Claudia Ferri (The Killing), Joshua
Sasse (Frankenstein’s Army, The Big I am), Jonathan
Holmes, Sarah Jeffrey, Ian Tracey (Intelligence,
Hell on Wheels), Jarod Joseph (Fringe), Matthew Beard
(And When Did You Last See Your Father, An Education), and
Martin Donovan (Simple Men, Weeds). Brian Kirk (Luck,
Game of Thrones, Boardwalk Empire) directs the first episode.
eOne handles worldwide distribution.
