Tom Hardy and Zazie Beetz are set to star in upcoming TV series Lazarus, developed by A+E studios and Range Studios, being sold to Apple TV. The series is based on the Joona Linna book series by Lars Kepler (pen name for Alexandra Coelho Ahndoril and Alexander Ahndoril), which has sold more than 17 million copies worldwide. Zazie, Tom, and the authors are also among the producers of the series.
Synopsis from the article:
In the series, an emaciated young man is found wandering along a train track. Thirteen years earlier, he and his sister went missing, presumed victims of the notorious serial killer Jurek Walter. To find the sister, police detective Saga Bauer must go undercover in the maximum-security psychiatric hospital where Jurek Walter has been kept since his arrest years ago. Hardy will play Jurek Walter and Beetz will portray Inspector Saga Bauer, apparently akin to Hannibal Lector-Clarice Starling type roles.
