The official logline for the series states that it follows “a disgraced FBI agent (Mackie) and an American career criminal (Dornan) who play a zero-sum game of cat and mouse across Europe. At the center of it all is the daring, epic raid on a bank vault deep beneath the streets of Zurich.” The series will take place across three timelines — the 12 months prior to the heist, the 12 hours of the heist, and the 12 days after.
The series is created by Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble, who will also executive produce. Kari Skogland will direct the pilot and executive produce. As mentioned, Dornan and Mackie executive produce, with Mackie executive producing under his Make It With Gravy production banner. Jason Spire of Inspire Entertainment will executive produce alongside David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Matt Thunell for Skydance Television, with Anonymous Content executive producing. The series is a co-production between Anonymous Content and Skydance TV.
The series marks a reunion for Dornan and Mackie, who previously starred together in the 2019 film “Synchronic,” about two paramedics investigating a designer drug that allows users to travel through time.
Mackie is best known for his work in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, having starred as Sam Wilson in six films and the series “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” to date, the last of which Skogland directed. He will next play the character in the film “Captain America: Brave New World.” Mackie also currently stars in the Peacock series “Twisted Metal,” based on the video game franchise of the same name. He is also known for starring in films such as “8 Mile,” “Detroit,” and “The Adjustment Bureau.”
He is repped by UTA, Inspire Entertainment, and The Lede Company.

He recently starred in the thriller series “The Tourist,” which aired on Max and then Netflix in the U.S. He starred in the BBC series “The Fall,” for which he earned a BAFTA TV Award nomination for best leading actor. In film, he is known for his role in the “Fifty Shades” franchise as well as recent roles in features like “A Haunting in Venice,” “Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar,” “Heart of Stone,” and “A Private War.” He received a Golden Globe nomination for best supporting actor in a motion picture for his role in Kenneth Branagh’s film “Belfast” in 2022.
