Apple TV‘s new Liev Schreiber, Zazie Beetz, and Stephen Graham-led drama series Nocturne has set Friday, October 30, for its premiere date. The show was previously known as Lazarus.
The series is based on the Lars Kepler novels Lazarus and The Sandman. Nocturne hails from writer and executive producer Rowan Joffe, and John Hlavin, who developed the 10-episode drama for TV, will serve as showrunner, writer, and executive producer.
Nocturne tells the story of Jonah Lynn (Schreiber), an ex-soldier turned homicide detective who, tired of working the tough streets of Philadelphia, moves to a small town in Western Pennsylvania for a quiet life. But as the town and his family come under attack from the diabolically cunning serial killer Jurek Walter (Graham), Jonah must protect all that he holds dear. When the desperate search for Jurek’s last missing victim forces Jonah to send his surrogate daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer (Beetz), up against Jurek, how far will Jonah go?
The ensemble cast also includes Bill Camp, Rory Culkin, Chrissy Metz, Poorna Jagannathan and Gary Carr.
The series is produced for Apple TV by A+E Studios in association with Range Studios. Tim Van Patten (Franklin, Masters of the Air) directs the first two episodes and serves as executive producer. In addition to starring, Schreiber executive produces, and Beetz executive produces via her Sleepy Poppy production company. Kepler (Alexandra Coelho Ahndoril and Alexander Ahndoril), Øystein Karlsen, David Rysdahl, Dorothy Fortenberry, and Niclas Salomonsson also executive produce. Julie Herrin serves as co-executive producer. Barry Jossen and Tana Jamieson executive produce for A+E Studios. Heather Kadin, Peter Micelli, and Jack Whigham executive produce for Range Studios.
