The maker of Broadchurch and Humans is bringing a new drama to Sky Atlantic. Here’s the first trailer for Tin Star. 

Production company Kudos, which is also behind Grantchester, is bringing Tin Star to Sky Atlantic, starring the ever-engaging Tim Roth. Written by Rowan Joffe (28 Weeks Later, Before I Go To Sleep), Tin Star is set in the Canadian Rockies, and will see Roth’s police chief, Jim Worth, attempt to find justice following the murder of one of his family. The synopsis also tells us:

“His obsessive quest to find the truth behind this mysterious killing drives a revelatory story about love, corruption, grief and the all-consuming nature of revenge. Reigniting behaviour from his dark past, his journey leads to a personal battle with a long-buried demon that will not just defeat his enemies but threatens to destroy those he loves most.”

Christina Hendricks (Mad Men, Drive) will star alongside – or maybe opposite – Roth in what looks to be a gritty, action-packed 10-part revenge drama.

You can see the first trailer below. Warning, though, it’s not for the faint hearted.
