Get ready to see Hugh Laurie in a whole new light—because this time, he’s not just diagnosing your symptoms with a side of sarcasm, he’s playing a crime lord on the run!
In Apple TV Plus’s upcoming thriller, *The Wanted Man*, Laurie steps into the shoes of Felix Carmichael, the elusive kingpin of the notorious British crime syndicate, ‘The Capital’. After spending some quality time behind bars (not the vacation he envisioned, I’d wager), our villain learns that betrayal is not just a plot twist; it’s the everyday reality of his life. Naturally, this calls for a dramatic escape and some serious revenge.
But it doesn’t stop with Laurie. The star-studded cast includes the incredibly talented Thandiwe Newton, Fionn Whitehead, and Gina McKee, promising a lineup that could make even the dullest day feel like a blockbuster event.
And let’s be honest, with the creator, George Kay, behind the wheel (the same genius who brought us *Hijack* starring Idris Elba), we’re likely in for a wild ride. So, grab your popcorn and get ready for a gripping narrative that promises to keep you on the edge of your seat—after all, Laurie has a knack for keeping his audience hooked, whether he’s playing doctor or criminal mastermind.
