in this slot for the fourth quarter with the British comedy now airing over the summer and the horror anthology series moving to Sunday nights.was a hot commodity given that it is an English-language drama starring a recognizable U.S. star that was in the can before the pandemic forced a production shutdown.
Dempsey told Deadline last year that he enjoyed working on an international story with a different perspective on the financial world than the U.S. is used to. “Everyone’s making their own projects from France to Italy, they’re no longer just waiting for the American market so I think it’s really important that we start collaborating internationally and use [our] visibility to cross pollinate. It’s an incredible time because there are so many stories to be told, depending on which country you’re from with young filmmakers and writers,” he added.
Dempsey stars alongside Alessandro Borghi and Kasia Smutniak . Based on the best-selling novel by Italian trader Guido Maria Brera, the ten-part series is set in the London office of a major U.S. bank, where the ruthless Head of Trading, Massimo Ruggero from Italy, has been welcomed and introduced to the world of finance by Dominic Morgan , the bank’s CEO.
