First Full Trailer For True Crime Peacock Series DR. DEATH Starring Joshua Jackson
A new full trailer has been released for the true crime series Dr. Death based on the podcast of the same name. The story follows the crazy true story of the enigmatic Dr. Duntsch, who is being portrayed by Joshua Jackson. The cast is rounded out by Grace Gummer, AnnaSophia Robb, Christian Slater, and Alec Baldwin.
Here’s the synopsis:
Dr. Death is inspired by the terrifying true story of Dr. Christopher Duntsch (Joshua Jackson), a rising star in the Dallas medical community. Young, charismatic and ostensibly brilliant, Dr. Duntsch was building a flourishing neurosurgery practice when everything suddenly changed. Patients entered his operating room for complex but routine spinal surgeries and left permanently maimed or dead. As victims piled up, two fellow physicians, neurosurgeon Robert Henderson (Alec Baldwin) and vascular surgeon Randall Kirby (Christian Slater), as well as Dallas prosecutor Michelle Shughart (AnnaSophia Robb), set out to stop him. DR. DEATH explores the twisted mind of Dr. Duntsch and the failures of the system designed to protect the most defenseless among us.
This looks like a really good adaptation with such a great cast. I can’t wait to check it out. Watch the trailer below, and catch Dr. Death on Peacock July 15th.
