Emmy winner Jon Bernthal (The Bear) and Pablo Schreiber (Halo) have come on board His & Hers, a psychological thriller based Alice Feeney’s novel. The limited series stars Tessa Thompson and is expected to begin shooting this year.

“Set in the sweltering heat of Atlanta, Anna lives in haunting reclusivity, fading away from her friends and career as a news anchor. But when she overhears about a murder in Dahlonega – the sleepy town where she grew up – Anna is snapped back to life, pouncing on the case and searching for answers,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Detective Jack Harper is strangely suspicious of her involvement, chasing her into the crosshairs of his own investigation. There are two sides to every story: HIS & HERS, which means someone is always lying.”

The streamer released the following descriptions of Bernthal and Schreiber’s characters:

  • Jon Bernthal as Jack: Jack is a Sheriff’s Office detective who lost his last job and is now working in his small hometown of Dahlonega, Georgia, where he lives with his sister and niece. He is married to newscaster Anna (Thompson), but the two are estranged, their relationship complicated by loss and betrayal. Jack is a good man who doesn’t always make good decisions and is deeply troubled by the murder case he’s just picked up.
  • Pablo Schreiber as Richard: Richard is one of the best cameramen at WSK TV News, and he’s also the husband of hot new anchor Lexy Jones, who slid into her position during the recent absence of regular anchor Anna Andrews. Richard is chosen by Anna to be her cameraman when, upon her return, she picks up the story of a murder in Dahlonega as a field reporter.

William Oldroyd, Dee Johnson (Fellow Travelers), Bill Dubuque are writing and executive producing. Oldroyd will direct the first episode, and Johnson will guide the series as showrunner. Additional executive producers include Campout Productions’ Kristen Campo, Viva Maude’s Kishori Rajan, and Freckle Films’ Jessica Chastain and Kelly Carmichael.
