Netflix has premiered the official trailer for the Richard Madden and Gugu Mbatha-Raw-led thriller series “Trinity” which premieres on the service on December 1st.
The project hails from UK TV legend Jed Mercurio, creator of acclaimed cop drama “Line of Duty” along with Netflix limited series hits like 2018’s “Bodyguard” (also starring Madden) and 2023’s time-period hopping “Bodies”.
Set in Washington, D.C., the story begins when a heroic female naval officer becomes involved with the outwardly charismatic secretary of defense, only to discover he may be at the heart of a dangerous conspiracy that ties to the mistaken deployment of a tactical nuclear weapon.
Mbatha-Raw plays Commander Katherine Decker, the second-in-command of the nuclear submarine USS Kansas. Madden plays Secretary of Defense Webb Preston.
20th Television produces the series which also stars a strong supporting cast including Marcia Gay Harden, JD Pardo, Bruce Greenwood, Robert Wisdom, Kirk Acevedo, Ben Cotton, James Remar, Jason Ralph, and Mark O’Brien.
Mercurio serves as writer/showrunner and executive produces with Bradley Gardner, Wendy Mericle, and Jimmy Mulville.
