Netflix

Netflix has premiered the first trailer for the limited series “The Beast In Me” starring Claire Danes and Matthew Rhys.

Since the tragic death of her young son, acclaimed author Aggie Wiggs (Danes) has receded from public life, unable to write, a ghost of her former self.

But she finds an unlikely subject for a new book when the house next door is bought by Nile Jarvis (Rhys), a famed and formidable real estate mogul who was once the prime suspect in his wife’s disappearance.

At once horrified and fascinated by this man, Aggie finds herself compulsively hunting for the truth – chasing his demons while fleeing her own – in a game of cat and mouse that might turn deadly.

Brittany Snow and Natalie Morales also star. Guest stars include Jonathan Banks, David Lyons, Tim Guinee, Hettienne Park, Deidre O’Connell, Aleyse Shannon, Will Brill, Kate Burton, Bill Irwin, Amir Arison and Julie Ann Emery.

Howard Gordon (“Homeland,” “Legends”) serves as showrunner, writer and executive producer on the series which Danes also executive produces. The series was created, and is also written and executive produced by Gabe Rotter.

Jodie Foster, Daniel Pearle, Conan O’Brien, Jeff Ross, David Kissinger and Antonio Campos executive produces. The series premieres on Thursday, November 13th.
