Emmy Rossum Hunts a Deadly Female Serial Killer in the Intense Trailer for Hulu's FURIOUS
Hulu has released the first trailer for its upcoming thriller series Furious, and it looks like it's bringing plenty of suspense, mystery, and psychological tension when it premieres later this summer.
The show centers on an FBI agent pursuing an elusive serial killer whose mind is just as dangerous as her crimes. It draws its inspiration from the 1987 thriller Black Widow, which originally starred Debra Winger and Theresa Russell, giving the premise a fresh television update with a different approach.
The series stars Emmy Rossum as FBI agent Alice Black, a determined investigator assigned to track down a mysterious and calculating female serial killer. The trailer strongly suggests that Lola Petticrew is playing the killer, setting up what looks like a fascinating cat-and-mouse game between the two women.
According to the official synopsis: "From creator and executive producer Elizabeth Meriwether, Furious follows FBI agent Alice Black (Emmy Rossum) on the hunt for a mysterious & calculating female serial killer. Both walk their own paths toward justice, and as their lives start to intertwine, the line between right and wrong begins to blur."
That moral gray area appears to be one of the show's biggest hooks. The footage hints that the killer isn't simply murdering at random, but may believe she's delivering justice in her own twisted way.
That creates an interesting dynamic where audiences could find themselves questioning exactly who deserves sympathy, even while recognizing the danger she poses.
Rossum and Petticrew are joined by a talented supporting cast that includes Scoot McNairy, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, Chloe Carrillo, Elizabeth Stahlmann, and Jake Lacy.
The series comes from Elizabeth Meriwether, the creator of New Girl, Bless This Mess, Single Parents, The Dropout, and Dying For Sex. She also serves as executive producer.
The trailer does a great job building intrigue without giving away too much, leaving viewers wondering where Alice's investigation will lead and how far both women are willing to go in pursuit of what they believe is justice.
Furious premieres on Hulu on July 27th, 2026.
