Lewis is a seemingly ordinary guy but under the surface he hides a singular obsession – revenge. The focus of this obsession is Cathy (Reilly). In
broad daylight, Lewis kidnaps Cathy and takes her to his home in the middle of nowhere. But this is no impulse crime and it’s clear he’s planned this
meticulously. He’s built a soundproofed cell measuring 10 feet by 10 feet where he will extract a dark secret from Cathy’s past. But there is more to
Cathy than meets the eye. As Lewis’ motive for the kidnapping reveals itself, it’s clear that Cathy will not become a victim and is a formidable match
for her kidnapper. (January 13 – February 17 / Atlanta Unit: February 4 - 17)

The number combination 7500 is an international air travel emergency code for a plane hijacking. Winter. It's almost Christmas. A flight from London
to Berlin. Business as usual in the cockpit of an Airbus A319 before take-off. Most of the plane’s passengers are business people. Co-pilot Tobias
Ellis (Dano) expertly goes through the routine flight preparations. The take-off is smooth as usual. But then, suddenly, screams can be heard from the
cabin. A group of men, the young Vedat amongst them, try to enter the cockpit armed with weapons made of glass bottles. A fight between crew and
terrorists ensues, and a psychological struggle between saving individual lives and preventing even greater harm is under way. The cockpit door
becomes a battle zone and Tobias finds himself in the position of having to decide between life and death.

Explores a fascination with staying young, a fear of ageing, instant gratification and long-term relationships in an irresistible setting. Family feuds and
bitter rivalries, professional and personal, escalate as we follow the lives and loves of the workers in the salon amongst the Botox, fillers and face-lifts.
Will secrets and lies destroy the family – or liberate it? Married to Wesley for 25 years, Bel has spent the last 18 years as a homemaker and mum to
their twins, but having just waved them off to university, now has a void in her life. Enter Teddy, brother-in-law and long-time Best Friend, begging her
to step in and rescue the family business – a down-at-heel beauty salon in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. Like Bel, it could do with a bit of a face-lift.
And possibly a clear-out, since it employs her high-maintenance family: mother Ivy-Rae (body building coach and spray tan technician), sisters
Leanne (part- time nail-technician, part-time personal stylist), Tina (‘body artist’ aka tattooist) and Heidi (fillers and Botox, Cosmetic Surgery addict)
mother to Disney, plump, 7 year old wannabe Pageant Queen. Into the mix comes beautiful 20-something Personal Trainer Lorelei who seems to
have caught Wes’s eye…can Bel reconcile the demands of her business, her warring family and the problems in her marriage?

Benji is confident, pathetic, unemployed, lives off of gift cards given to him his wealthy parents, and lives in his family's home. Esther is a cute, gross,
basically homeless nanny, who crashes at Benji's often. Esther and Benji have a strictly platonic friendship and help each other navigate LA life.
Esther is excited when she learns that Benji's sister Alia, a hot fashion designer, is hiring a new assistant. At a party at Benji's house Esther tries to
impress Alia but it doesn't go as planned and Benji isn't any help. Esther tries to be Benji's wing-woman at the party and successfully gets an
attractive woman, Charlotte interested in him. Charlotte is toting a designer purse and claims to be a nanny. Esther goes back to trying to impress
Alia, but Benji brings Charlotte over and Alia ends up giving the job to Charlotte, who then agrees to go on a date with Benji. Esther is pissed. Later,
Esther finds out that Charlotte is actually an escort. Esther goes to Benji to tell him the news and points Charlotte out on the escort website. But Benji
is smitten and doesn't want to break up with Charlotte. Esther says she's going to tell Benji's parents unless he breaks up with Charlotte, mostly
because she wants Charlotte's job. Later, Esther joins the escort services website so she can get a free meal at a fancy restaurant. Esther goes out
with an old guy to a fancy restaurant, but she runs into Benji and Charlotte at the end of dinner. Later, Benji calls Esther a hypocrite and they get in a
fight. Esther says she already sent Alia an anonymous tip that Charlotte was an escort. Esther storms out but realizes she has nowhere to go. The
next day Charlotte shows up at Benji's and said Alia fired her. Benji tries to cheer her up and goes to get her a drink. Benji returns and discovers
Charlotte is gone and has taken his collector's baseball card, the only thing of value in his room. Meanwhile Esther's out with the old guy again and
when he tries to kiss her, Esther freaks out. Esther and Benji both make a pact that they won't do any more escort stuff. But they soon end up at the
same restaurant, Benji unknowingly ordered Esther as an escort. Later, Alia tells her coworker that she's going to give Esther a shot at being her
assistant. But then the coworker finds Esther's picture on the escort site. (April - June)

Andrew Jackson, his intimate circle of friends, and his tumultuous times are at the heart of this remarkable book about the man who rose from nothing
to create the modern presidency. Beloved and hated, venerated and reviled, Andrew Jackson was an orphan who fought his way to the pinnacle of
power, bending the nation to his will in the cause of democracy. Jackson’s election in 1828 ushered in a new and lasting era in which the people, not
distant elites, were the guiding force in American politics. Democracy made its stand in the Jackson years, and he gave voice to the hopes and the
fears of a restless, changing nation facing challenging times at home and threats abroad.

It's the mid-70s and beautiful Bonnie Nolan (Silverstone) gave up her acting dreams long ago so she could play dutiful housewife and mother. She's
planning a birthday party for her husband Steve, and she can't even buy him a watch without him knowing about it because she doesn't have her own
checking account. Bonnie raises their two daughters -- Jessica, a wide-eyed innocent beauty -- and Becca, a defiant teen. Steve is a real estate
agent who believes that a woman's place is in the home. When Bonnie tries to get him to let her have her own checking account, Steve harshly shuts
her down. Bonnie's best friends are Diana, chic and progressive, and Kathleen, boozy and gorgeous. Kathleen has a new boy toy, Greg, who Bonnie
thinks is just another gold digger because Kathleen's family is very wealthy. Bonnie starts to notice odd things about Steve, like the fact that he's
wearing new cologne, he has clothes she doesn't recognize, and he's coming home late. One night when Steve calls and says he's going to be at the
office late, Bonnie takes the girls, drives to his work and follows him as he drives to a house. A beautiful red head comes out and kisses him and
Bonnie's worst fears are confirmed. On the way back, Bonnie and the girls stop for some dinner and then are followed by some creepy guys. Bonnie
yells at them and they back off, impressing Becca and Jessica. Bonnie confronts Steve when he gets home and he admits to having an affair, but
says that it doesn't mean anything and that nothing should changed. Bonnie is shocked by his callousness and the fact that he just wants to go on
pretending they can be a couple. Bonnie tells Steve she wants a divorce and holds a knife to his throat and says she wants him gone that night.
Jessica gets upset when Steve leaves and she gets mad at Bonnie.

The spy was one of the leading spies in Europe. An injury inflicted to his vocal cords during a failed mission six years ago left him mute, forcing him to
leave his profession. Now, six years later, he is sought out and put on confidential assignment by a former Yakuza, now a retired Japanese
businessman in exile in France, to track down and kill the head of the most dangerous Yakuza family in Japan. Afraid of flying, our spy anonymously
boards a cargo ship headed for Tokyo. An onboard explosion sinks the ship and our spy finds himself washed ashore on a life raft in southern Japan.
As a mute, our spy must silently journey through Japan seeking 4 clues – symbolizing conquest, war, famine, and death – which will guide him to the
unknown location of the Yakuza boss. Meanwhile, the Yakuza boss, known for his 2004 mass slaughter of Yakuza members who had turned against
him, is believed to be plotting to reenter the Japanese underworld after living in his own surreptitious world in the mountains, void of all technology.
This way of life becomes an obsession for the Yakuza boss. Rumors spread that he had committed suicide years ago but escaped prisoners from his
hidden camp told stories of his plan for a comeback. Now rival Yakuza families suspect he is forming a master plan to return, a plan that unburies the
most infamous story of Yakuza betrayal. Our spy finds himself on an existential journey through Japan in search of pieces to the puzzle that will lead
him to a confrontation with the ultimate Yakuza boss in a terrifying conclusion.

“Beautiful Boy” refers to the song John Lennon wrote for his son Sean in 1980. David Sheff (Carell) was inspired to have his own family after
conducting the last major interview with Lennon before he was assassinated in New York in 1980. What had happened to my beautiful boy? To our
family? What did I do wrong? Those are the wrenching questions that haunted every moment of David Sheff’s journey through his son Nic’s addiction
to drugs and tentative steps toward recovery. Before Nic Sheff became addicted to crystal meth, he was a charming boy, joyous and funny, a varsity
athlete and honor student adored by his two younger siblings. After meth, he was a trembling wraith who lied, stole, and lived on the streets. David
Sheff traces the first subtle warning signs: the denial, the 3 A.M. phone calls (is it Nic? the police? the hospital?), the rehabs. His preoccupation with
Nic became an addiction in itself, and the obsessive worry and stress took a tremendous toll. But as a journalist, he instinctively researched every
avenue of treatment that might save his son and refused to give up on Nic.

Rudd will play Moe Berg, an Ivy League grad and attorney who spoke nine languages, but that wasn’t the only reason he stood out among his

worry might have been hitting a curveball; Berg doubled as a top secret spy for the OSS (a forerunner for the CIA), who helped the U.S. win the race
against Germany to build the atomic bomb. Perhaps Berg was helped in his efforts to stay under the radar by the fact his skills were not going to
make anyone forget about Babe Ruth. (January - March)

Middle-aged Lee Israel (McCarthy) is a freelance writer based in New York, specializing in successful biographies of near forgotten stars like Tallulah
Bankhead and Dorothy Kilgallen. By 1991, her market has dried up, her lover has long since left her, her rent is overdue and her cat gets sick. She is
on a downward spiral emotionally and economically as her caustic, abrasively witty but borderline-hateful personality has alienated everyone who
might help her or hire her. Inadvertently, Lee discovers that she has a hidden talent: creating and forging personal letters from long-dead writers and
celebrities like Noel Coward and Louise Brooks, and her under-the-table income generates a sudden upswing in her precarious personal and
financial life. However, when she makes a careless mistake which alerts dealers to the questionable authenticity of her work, her house of cards
begins to crumble. (January 23 - March 2)

Crime Squad, resident of the crumbling city of Besźel. The mutilated body of a foreign student is found dumped on some wasteland and Borlú is
assigned to the case. Borlu is unfazed until he uncovers evidence that the dead girl had been involved in the political turmoil between Besźel and its
prosperous twin city of Ul Qoma, which occupies the same physical space. Citizens of each city are forbidden from seeing each other, and the frontier
between the cities is policed by 'Breach' which punishes all transgressions. Despite the violent deaths of those around him, and a growing realization
that he is personally implicated in the crimes, Borlú doggedly chases the truth. To solve the case he will have to embark on an odyssey of the mind, a

The show centers on the women who work at Nail Artisans of Manatee County in Palmetto, Florida. They're great at nails, but they are better at
laundering money. Desna is the lead, a sexy and formidable woman in her mid-40s who has been grinding out a living her whole life, doing what it
takes to support her mentally challenged brother. Desna's crew at Nail Artisans includes -- Jennifer, late 30s, the personality of a fighting dog -- Quiet
Ann, a hulking Florida Seminole woman of middle age who is true to her name -- and Polly, mid 50s, recently got out of jail for an identity theft
scheme gone wrong that has left her broke. There's also Virginia, early 20s, a hot young thing with a poor work ethic that none of the other ladies like.
She was forced on them in Polly's absence by the real boss of the money laundering operation, Roller, a gross-hot gangstered out redneck who has
a business-like sexual relationship with Desna. Roller also has a fetish for choking and being chocked. Roller is in charge but he lets Desna and the
ladies do all the work. They've set up a pain clinic near the nail salon where they hired Dr. Ken Brickman to hand out pills to whoever wants them.
Then Desna and the ladies go about cleaning the money through various off-shore accounts. Dr. Brickman is concerned about two old twins who
have been sitting in the clinic without appointments for several days. Desna tells him they'll get him more security guards. Desna and the ladies head
to a New Years party at The Gentleman's Zone, a strip club where they all may have worked at one time or another. There we meet Roller's boss,
Uncle Daddy, the gay owner of the club and leader of the criminal activities. Uncle Daddy is pleased with Roller's work this year and says he's giving
Roller a new mansion. Roller has promised Desna a big bonus in the neighborhood of 20 grand, but Uncle Daddy only gives Desna three grand.
Desna is pissed that she's done all the work for none of the rewards. Uncle Daddy also tells Roller that he's going into business with the Russians
and inflated their business to impress them, so Roller has to open two more pain clinics in the next week. That night Polly has a meltdown and the
girls find out about her financial situation.

A one-hour international thriller woven around a murder in a remote Canadian Arctic town. The series follows an investigation that begins with a
ritualistic killing in an isolated Arctic outpost but grows to expose an international conspiracy to control the vast natural resources of the Arctic. It’s a
thrilling and realistic look at the effects of globalization set against the last frontier on Earth, where countries and corporations are waging war for
sovereignty over an ungoverned territory. (May 1 - October 7)

A whistleblower’s harrowing journey into an undercover FBI operation in 1980’s Cook County, Illinois, sending him toe-to-toe with corrupt judges,
hustling defense attorneys, and Chicago mobsters; and ultimately resulting in the largest number of convictions of government officials in the history
of the United States. Cohen will play the protagonist, Terrence Hake, a young lawyer who risked his life to go undercover for the FBI in Chicago, in a
sting operation that resulted in an unprecedented arrest of over 100 government officials. They brought down 17 judges, 48 lawyers, 8 policemen, 10
deputy sheriffs, 8 court officials, and one state legislator. At one point, the FBI also flew in more than 400 undercover agents to train in a Hollywoodstyle prop-and-costume warehouse, to really commit crimes, to really get arrested, and to hire Mr. Hake to bribe government officials to get them off.
This high-stakes political thriller is rife with the comedic absurdity of characters drawn into back-of-bar-room deals and shake-downs.

When Ruby woke up on her tenth birthday, something about her had changed. Something alarming enough to make her parents lock her in the
garage and call the police. Something that gets her sent to Thurmond, a brutal government "rehabilitation camp." She might have survived the
mysterious disease that's killed most of America's children, but she and the others have emerged with something far worse: frightening abilities they
cannot control. Now sixteen, Ruby is one of the dangerous ones. When the truth comes out, Ruby barely escapes Thurmond with her life. Now she's
on the run, desperate to find the one safe haven left for kids like her-East River. She joins a group of kids who escaped their own camp. Liam, their
brave leader, is falling hard for Ruby. But no matter how much she aches for him, Ruby can't risk getting close. Not after what happened to her
parents. When they arrive at East River, nothing is as it seems, least of all its mysterious leader. But there are other forces at work, people who will
stop at nothing to use Ruby in their fight against the government. Ruby will be faced with a terrible choice, one that may mean giving up her only
chance at a life worth living.

Aging hitman Leslie, a one-man euthanasia clinic with a good heart but a shaky hand, is not so lucky. His new boss at The Guild of Assassins is all
about quotas and Leslie’s been reduced to searching suicide hotspots for potential clients to help him meet targets. It’s a last-ditch attempt to delay
his enforced retirement for another year. Following a chance encounter on a bridge, William realizes he could use some professional help. With so
many attempts and zero success, it’s obvious an experienced cold-blooded killer is exactly what William needs. After browsing through Leslie’s
brochure “Your Death...Your Way” William settles on “quick and painless”. It’s not exactly the hero’s death he’d always dreamt of but it’s all he can
afford. With the contract signed, and the promise from Leslie of “no garrotting”, William waits for the inevitable. But with death assured within a week
(or his money back), William for the first time in his life feels a weight lift. However, a contract is a contract as far as Leslie is concerned and William
isn’t going to get out of it that easily.

The atmospheric mystery-thriller opens as Detroit neurosurgeon Polly Lewis embarks on an unorthodox study in the field of memory and trauma. Her
once closest friend - the irreverent, brilliant Tash Hollander - comes home after living many years in a strange, off-the-grid community in Belize. Upon
her return, Tash insinuates herself into Polly's life in audacious ways that threaten everything Polly has achieved. But why? The Deep Mad Dark is a
propulsive, layered mystery about an intoxicating friendship and how it leads to a brutal act of violence that drives two women in radically different
ways. Set against the landscape of modern Detroit, it explores the power certain friendships have to shape who we are - in ways both beautiful and
dangerous.

Whiskey and porn stars, hot rods and car crashes, black leather and high heels, overdoses and death. This is the life of MÖtley CrÜe, the heaviest
drinking, hardest fighting, most oversexed and arrogant band in the world. Their unbelievable exploits are the stuff of rock 'n' roll legend. They nailed
the hottest chicks, started the bloodiest fights, partied with the biggest drug dealers, and got to know the inside of every jail cell from California to
Japan. They have dedicated an entire career to living life to its extreme, from the greatest fantasies to the darkest tragedies. Tommy married two
international sex symbols; Vince killed a man and lost a daughter to cancer; Nikki overdosed, rose from the dead, and then OD'd again the next day;
and Wick shot a woman and tried to hang his own brother. But that's just the beginning. Fueled by every drug they could get their hands on and
obscene amounts of alcohol, driven by fury and headed straight for hell, MÖtley CrÜe raged through two decades, leaving behind a trail of
debauched women, trashed hotel rooms, crashed cars, psychotic managers, and broken bones that has left the music industry cringing to this day.
Based on the novel The Dirt: Confessions of the World's Most Notorious Rock Band.

mediation, comically threatens to have her soon-to-be-ex-husband killed and he turns up dead the next day, she has to go on the run and turn to a
criminal she has been prosecuting to help her clear her name. Maddie’s humanity and sense of humor remain intact as she is forced to compromise

Theo Decker, a 13-year-old New Yorker, miraculously survives an accident that kills his mother. Abandoned by his father, Theo is taken in by the
family of a wealthy friend. Bewildered by his strange new home on Park Avenue, disturbed by schoolmates who don't know how to talk to him, and
tormented above all by his longing for his mother, he clings to the one thing that reminds him of her: a small, mysteriously captivating painting that
ultimately draws Theo into the underworld of art. As an adult, Theo moves silkily between the drawing rooms of the rich and the dusty labyrinth of an
antiques store where he works. He is alienated and in love--and at the center of a narrowing, ever more dangerous circle.

Set in the present day, the series follows the trials and tribulations of dealing with the social order in high school. A new set of popular-yet-evil
Heathers emerges -- only this time the outcasts have become high school royalty. The series centers on the modern day drama at Westerburg High
School, where a new social order has taken hold. Like the film, the pilot features a set of uber popular Heathers, only this time, the outcasts have
become the royalty. Heather McNamara is a black lesbian -- Heather Duke is a male who identifies as gender-queer whose real name is Heath -- and
the leader, Heather Chandler has a body like Martha Dumptruck only she's fabulous, tattooed, has red hair and has 245k Instagram followers.
Veronica Sawyer (Cox) is the fourth popular girl in the Heathers' clique, but she's a relatively good person and is getting very tired of doing Heather
Chandler's bidding. Veronica used to be best friends with nerdy Asian girl Betty Finn, who now hates all the Heathers but plays fake nice. In the
cafeteria, Heather Chandler publicly shames a jock named Ram for wearing a sports jersey with a cartoon Native American on it. She forces Ram to
take off the shirt, but not before snapping a picture. Veronica meets a hot guy, JD, who recently transferred to their school and they hit it off. Later,
Veronica and Heather Duke witness Heather McNamara making out with a male teacher, meaning she's not really a lesbian and is only pretending so
she can be seen as interesting. Heather Duke snaps a pic. Veronica and Heather Chandler go to an art college for a gallery showing when Veronica
realizes that Heather posted the photo of Ram wearing the jersey, which will probably ruin his life. Veronica is goaded into fat-shaming Heather, who
promises to destroy Veronica too. That night, JD shows up at Veronica's house with a plan for revenge. They go to Heather Chandler's house with
Nazi paraphernalia and vomit pills so they can post an incriminating photo of Heather Chandler. They break into her house and trick Heather into
taking the pill, but Heather appears to be dead after she takes it. JD realizes he had the wrong pills. JD convinces Veronica that they can make this
look like a suicide video and they post the video from Heather Chandler's account. (The first season has been greenlit with a 10-episode order.)

This is the true story of William Pitsenbarger, a war hero of the highest order, an Air Force medic who personally saved over 60 men, before being
killed in the bloodiest battle of the Vietnam War. Given the chance to escape on the last helicopter out of the battlefield, Pitsenbarger remained to
save and defend all those soldiers who were left, but was eventually killed by an enemy bullet, sacrificing his own life for his comrades. For his heroic
deeds, Pitsenbarger was awarded the highest military honor a soldier could get, the Congressional Medal of Honor. This medal is awarded for
personal acts of valor, above and beyond, the call of duty. But before Pitsenbarger was given the medal, it was taken away from him for unknown, but
seemingly political reasons. The Last Full Measure is the touching story of Pitsenbarger’s father who together with all survivors of the Vietnam battle
petitioned the government to give this fallen war hero the medal he so well deserved. Investigator Scott Huffman is assigned to the case to
investigate the reason for this grave injustice. During his research, Scott begins to discover the private and political reasons why certain corrupt
politicians denied Pitsenbarger’s medal. Scott personally visits a number of the survivors of that terrible battle, all of whom unite for a march on
Washington to give back to William Pitsenbarger the honor that has been so ingloriously taken from him. Driven by their conviction, Huffman and
Pitsenbarger’s friends and family reclaim his well deserved award in an emotional outpouring that honored this truly great man. To this day, he
remains only of 1 of 2 enlisted airmen to ever receive such an honor.

Sitting on the Bakken formation in North Dakota, Little Woods is home to transients looking to make their fortune — an oil boomtown where the influx
of workers has caused the population and average wage to triple. But not everyone makes the money they need and not everyone can find a place to
live. Wal-Mart's parking lot is now a trailer park for the new arrivals and those unable to afford the swollen rent. The infrastructure is crumbling, the
crime rate is rising, and men outnumber women 1.6 to 1. North Dakota's oil is shifting the world's oil map but the people in this town are still falling
through the cracks. Ollie is one such resident struggling to cobble together a meaningful existence. Two years ago, in a desperate attempt to take
care of her ailing mother, she began crossing into Canada for affordable medication. Now, in the wake of her mother's death, she has become a
shepherd for the other sick residents of Little Woods. After being caught one too many times, the very real prospect of prison forces Ollie to
reconsider whether she is paying too high a price for the good she is trying to provide to her town. Settling her affairs, however, means reconnecting
with her foster sister, Deb, from whom she has been estranged for the last four years. A young single mother living in a trailer in the Wal-Mart parking
lot, Deb is trying to go back to school and make a better life for her son. Her plans are driven off-course by a pregnancy test showing a result that is
the last thing Deb can afford. The lack of support in town and the limited options from the state leave her with no choices and a short timeline. There
is only one person who can help. (Begins production in early 2017.)

Ted Kaczynski (Bettany), also known as the “Unabomber,” terrified the nation over the span of 20 years from the 1980s through the early 1990s.
Manifesto will tell the story of how the FBI brought down one of the most infamous criminal masterminds in the world from the point of view of an FBI
profiler. The series will trace how FBI Agent Jim “Fitz” Fitzgerald (Worthington) challenged the “old school” ways with his radical new approach to
intelligence gathering. Prior to Fitzgerald’s involvement, the profile of the perpetrator took a completely different direction. Fitzgerald had training as a
profiler, but it was his focus on linguistics that became vital to breaking the case. He believed that the key to unlocking the true identity of the
Unabomber would be found in the language of The Manifesto, a detailed account of some of Kaczynski’s plots.

It’s 2011, and Samuel Andresen-Anderson—college professor, stalled writer—has a Nix of his own: his mother, Faye. He hasn’t seen her in decades,
not since she abandoned the family when he was a boy. Now she’s re-appeared, having committed an absurd crime that electrifies the nightly news,
beguiles the internet, and inflames a politically divided country. The media paints Faye as a radical hippie with a sordid past, but as far as Samuel
knows, his mother was an ordinary girl who married her high-school sweetheart. Which version of his mother is true? Two facts are certain: she’s
facing some serious charges, and she needs Samuel’s help. To save her, Samuel will have to embark on his own journey, uncovering long-buried
secrets about the woman he thought he knew, secrets that stretch across generations and have their origin all the way back in Norway, home of the
mysterious Nix. As he does so, Samuel will confront not only Faye’s losses but also his own lost love, and will relearn everything he thought he knew
about his mother, and himself. From the suburban Midwest to New York City to the 1968 riots that rocked Chicago and beyond, The Nix explores—
with sharp humor and a fierce tenderness—the resilience of love and home, even in times of radical change.

must return to her tiny hometown to cover the murders of two preteen girls. For years, Camille hardly has spoken to her neurotic, hypochondriac

Victorian mansion, Camille finds herself identifying with the young victims — a bit too strongly. Dogged by her own demons, she must unravel the
psychological puzzle of her own past if she wants to get the story — and survive this homecoming. (March - July)

A limited drama series which will tell the story of John Paul Getty III, heir to the Getty oil fortune. Equal parts family history, dynastic saga and satirical
examination of the corrosive power of money, Trust is a story that attempts to unlock the mystery at the heart of every family, rich or poor. The first
installment takes place in 1973, when the young Getty is kidnapped in Rome and his mafia captors are banking on a multi-million dollar ransom. After
all, what rich family wouldn’t pay for the return of a loved one? Trust charts the young man’s nightmare ordeal at the hands of kidnappers who cannot
understand why nobody seems to want their captive back. The Italian police think it’s a prank and decline to investigate. Paul’s father is lost in a
heroin daze in London and refuses to answer the phone. Paul’s grandfather - possibly the richest man in the world - is marooned in a Tudor mansion
in the English countryside surrounded by five mistresses and a pet lion. He’s busy. Only Paul’s mother is left to negotiate with increasingly desperate
kidnappers. Problem is, she’s broke.

Based on the harrowing true story of the 1993 FBI siege of the religious sect in Waco, Texas, that resulted in the deadly shootout and fire. The 51day siege ended with an FBI assault on the compound, which was burned down and ultimately killed 76 people inside — including David Koresch.
The event series will explore the true-life events leading up to and chronicling the 51-day siege between the FBI, ATF and Koresch's sect, the Branch
Davidians. It will be told from several perspectives of those who were involved — from both sides of the conflict. Kitsch will star as Branch Davidian
leader Koresch, while Shannon is set as lead FBI negotiator Gary Noesener. Ludacris is being eyed to portray Branch Davidian member Wayne
Martin.
