The Game of Thrones world collides with the casting of Lena Headey (Cersei Lannister in Game of Thrones) and Paddy Considine (King Viserys I Targaryen in House of the Dragon) in Netflix’s Untitled Charlie Brooker Project. Headey, Considine, and Georgina Campbell (Barbarian) will star in Brooker’s upcoming project, described as a four-part detective series.
“I’m beyond thrilled to be saying these words for the press release. I’ve dreamt of providing a quote ever since I was a young foetus, and now here I am doing it,” stated Brooker (Black Mirror). “I’d pinch myself, but like all of us, I’m terrified that if I do that, I might wake up and discover 2025 has all been a magical dream. Please watch my show. I am begging you.”
The series is currently in production. Netflix hasn’t announced a target premiere date.
“The Untitled Charlie Brooker Project (working title) is a profoundly serious, stunningly original crime thriller in which a tormented detective from the Northern city of Bleakford ventures down to London on a mission to catch a ritualistic serial killer before they run out of people to kill,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Contains blood and frowning.”
Brooker created the series and serves as a writer and executive producer. Additional writers include Ben Caudell, Jason Hazeley, Emer Kenny, Daniel Maier, and Joel Morris. Richard Webb is on board as a producer, with Jessica Rhoades and Annabel Jones executive producing. Al Campbell is directing.
