The series stars Tom Hollander and Niamh Algar in a deadly game of hide and seek. 

Sky have revealed a few images from their upcoming thriller The Iris Affair.

The eight-part series, previously just known as Iris, comes to our screens later this year.

Niamh Algar (Malpractice) and Tom Hollander (The White Lotus) lead the show. Written by Luther creator Neil Cross, it’s billed as “a tense and cinematic chase thriller that pits two brilliant minds against each other in a deadly game of hide and seek across Italy.”

Here’s the synopsis for The Iris Affair…

When enigmatic genius Iris Nixon (Algar) cracks a string of complex online puzzles, she’s led to a piazza in Florence where she meets charismatic entrepreneur Cameron Beck (Hollander). He invites her to come and work for him to unlock a powerful and top-secret piece of technology. Her curiosity piqued, she accepts. But when Iris discovers its dangerous potential, she steals the journal containing the device’s activation sequence—and vanishes.

What follows is a relentless pursuit, from a remote cabin in Sardinia through the bustling streets of Rome, as Cameron races to find Iris in a high-stakes game where trust is dangerous and failure could be catastrophic.

Joining Algar and Hollander are Kristofer Hivju (Game of Thrones), Harry Lloyd (Arcane) and Sacha Dhawan (Doctor Who). Also, Meréana Tomlinson, Maya Sansa, Peter Sullivan, Debi Mazar, Marco Leonardi, Angela Bruce and Lorenzo De Moor.

The Iris Affair is a Sky Studios and Fremantle co-production. The series directors are Terry McDonough (Breaking Bad) and Sarah O’Gorman (The Witcher).
