Trailer for USA Anthology Series BRIARPATCH: A TWISTED TALE IN TEN PARTS Starring Rosario Dawson

We’ve got a new trailer today for the USA series Briarpatch: A Twisted Tale in Ten Parts starring Rosario Dawson as a woman who returns to a small town to solve her sister’s murder. The anthology series is being executive produced by Mr. Robot creator Sam Esmail, with writer and executive producer Andy Greenwald on board as well. The series also stars Kim Dickens (Deadwood, Fear the Walking Dead), Jay R. Ferguson (Mad Men, The Conners), Brian Geraghty (Flight, Boardwalk Empire), Edi Gathegi (Gone Baby Gone, The Blacklist), Alan Cumming (Cabaret, Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion), and Ed Asner (The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Elf, Up).

Here’s the synopsis:

BRIARPATCH follows Allegra Dill (Dawson), a dogged investigator returning to her border-town Texas home after her sister is murdered. What begins as a search for a killer turns into an all-consuming fight to bring her corrupt hometown to its knees. The season celebrates the beloved genres represented by Thomas’ book — a stylish blend of crime and pulp fiction — while updating his sense of fun, danger and place for a new generation. The season also stars Jay R. Ferguson (Mad Men, The Romanoffs), Brian Geraghty (Chicago P.D., Ray Donovan), and Edi Gathegi (StartUp). The first season will shoot in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

This series looks like a total trip, not unlike Esmail’s Mr. Robot. I’m interested in seeing what this brilliant cast brings to the show. Check out the trailer below, and watch the first season of Briarpatch on USA beginning February 6, 2020.
