Trailer for Danny Boyle's British Cop Series BABYLON
While we wait to see what Danny Boyle does with his Steve Jobs movie with Christian Bale, here's the trailer to an amazing looking series that he developed, called Babylon. The police dramedy focuses on the London police department, which must deal with some bad public image concerns. To fix their problems, they bring in an outside PR person. The series stars James Nesbitt and Britt Marling, and here's a brief description of the story:
London’s police force is in need of a public image revamp. And Chief Constable Richard Miller, played by James Nesbitt, has found just the woman to do it…
American visionary from the world of new media Liz Garvey, played by Brit Marling, sets out to revolutionise the force’s PR department just as an outbreak of violence erupts.
Babylon was written by Peep Show creators Sam Bain and Jesse Armstrong, and it also stars Jill Halfpenny, Paterson Joseph, Bertie Carvel, and Adam Deacon. This is a six-part series, and it will premiere on the U.K.’s Channel 4 on November 13th. If you don't live in the U.K. and you really want to watch this series, I'm sure you have your ways of finding it.
