An upcoming Netflix limited series explores the trials, tribulations, and treasonous actions of a MI6 agent, who finds himself taking over as Chief after his predecessor was poisoned.
That's the premise of Treason, created and written by Matt Charman (known for espionage thriller Bridge of Spies). The new series sees protagonist Adam Lawrence (played by Daredevil's Charlie Cox) as the torn hero, assuming high levels of responsibility within the UK's foreign intelligence service and grappling with a presumably seedy past. Treason also stars Olga Kurylenko as Kara, a Russian spy who Lawrence shares history with, and Oona Chaplin as Maddy, Lawrence's wife.
Treason will premiere on Netflix on Dec. 26.
