Joel Kinnaman to Star in Crime Drama Series BISHOP at Prime Video
Actor Joel Kinnaman (Suicide Squad, RoboCop) has signed on to star in a new series that has been given an official green light at Prime Video titled Bishop. The original thriller drama comes from co-creators/executive producers Little Marvin (Them) and Tony Salzman (Dexter: Resurrection), Vertigo and Amazon MGM Studios.
Kinnaman also headlines Apple TV+’s sci-fi drama series For All Mankind, whose upcoming fifth season is awaiting a premiere date. It is unclear whether he could do both shows. Apple TV+ has not said whether Season 5 of For All Mankind will be its last; the fate of Kinnaman’s character on the alt-history space race drama is also unknown.
In Bishop, homicide detective Bishop Graves (Kinnaman) – brilliant, battle-scarred – will put all of his skills to the test in the hunt for an elusive killer targeting San Francisco’s moneyed class.
As this increasingly audacious killer develops a devoted following among the city’s powerless, Bishop becomes convinced these murders connect back to SF’s most powerful man, his own father, Lincoln Graves.
Kinnaman also is set to star opposite Elisabeth Moss and Kerry Washington in the upcoming Apple TV+ limited series Imperfect Women.
