The new clip from episode four of Apple TV+’s Manhunt shows President Lincoln’s right-hand man Edwin Stanton (played by Tobias Menzies, Outlander) confronting a powerful man who’s protecting Lincoln’s assassin, John Wilkes Booth. Episode four premieres on Friday, March 29, 2024 and focuses on Stanton and Detective Lafayette Baker’s (Patton Oswalt, The Sandman) investigation into the “ties between Manhattan’s most elite Wall Street traders, the Confederacy, and Booth.”
The critically acclaimed true crime thriller also stars Anthony Boyle (Masters of the Air) as John Wilkes Booth, Hamish Linklater (Midnight Mass) as President Abraham Lincoln, Lovie Simone (Greenleaf) as Mary Simms, and Will Harrison (Daisy Jones & The Six) as David Herold. Brandon Flynn (13 Reasons Why) plays Edwin Stanton Jr, Damian O’Hare (Hatfields & McCoys) is Thomas Eckert, Glenn Morshower (The Resident) is Andrew Johnson, and Matt Walsh (Veep) is Dr. Samuel Mudd.
The seven-part series was created by Emmy nominee Monica Beletsky and is based on James Swanson’s bestselling, Edgar Award-winning non-fiction book, Manhunt: The 12-Day Chase for Lincoln’s Killer. Beletsky, author Swanson, Carl Franklin, Layne Eskridge, Kate Barry, Michael Rotenberg, Richard Abate, Frank Smith, and Naia Cucukov serve as executive producers.
