Get ready for a pulse-pounding new thriller! Netflix has secured a major coup, greenlighting 'Trinity,' a series from the acclaimed creator of 'Bodyguard,' Jed Mercurio. The series boasts a stellar cast, headlined by the immensely talented Gugu Mbatha-Raw ('Loki,' 'Miss Virginia') and Richard Madden ('Game of Thrones,' 'Citadel').

Mercurio, known for his masterful blend of suspense, political intrigue, and high-stakes action, is already a household name thanks to the global phenomenon that was 'Bodyguard.' 'Trinity' promises to deliver a similar level of tension and gripping storytelling, but with a distinctly fresh premise.

What's 'Trinity' About?

While plot details are currently tightly under wraps (as is Mercurio's signature style!), early reports suggest 'Trinity' will revolve around a British citizen, Emily Carter (played by Mbatha-Raw), who is placed under police protection after a terrorist attack. However, Emily is not your average witness – she's a suspect. Richard Madden will portray the dedicated protection officer tasked with keeping her safe, even as he grapples with the possibility that she's guilty. The series explores the complex relationship between protector and protected, navigating a web of deception, suspicion, and the relentless search for the truth.
