Rye Lane‘s Vivian Oparah and Extraordinary‘s Bilal Hasna lead Prime Video‘s upcoming UK series Dead Hot, which dropped a wild, fun trailer on Thursday.
Set in Liverpool, the series introduces best friends Jess (Oparah) and Elliot (Hasna), who are united in grief and partying hard to avoid processing it all. Five years ago, Jess’ twin brother Peter, also the love of Elliot’s life, went missing. But when Elliot meets someone new, Will, who appears to be hiding something, and Jess gets contacted by someone claiming to be Peter, chaos and mystery ensues.
Created and written by Charlotte Coben (Harlan Coben’s daughter, who worked on the TV adaptations of The Stranger, Stay Close, Shelter, Fool Me Once), Dead Hot looks like one strange ride.
