Prime Video is actively preparing its 2025 lineup by combining particularly attractive projects. The American platform is currently developing Criminal (not to be confused with the Netflix series), an adaptation of the Marvel-branded comics, imagined by the duo Ed Brubaker / Sean Phillips.
Just days after Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy) was announced to be in the cast, Prime Video has revealed that it has also cast Emilia Clarke. The former Daenerys from Game of Thrones will try her hand at a police thriller for the second time after Above Suspicion.
Criminal Emilia Clarke
Although it is a Marvel comic, Criminal does not feature superheroes, but focuses on various characters in several story arcs. However, they have one thing in common: they live in the same world, they grow up in the same fictional city center, they frequent the same bar, and they share a history of two generations of criminals.
Emilia Clarke will play Mallory. “A bold and cunning thief, as quick in arms as he is in mind. He is part of a heist team with Ricky Lawley (Gus Halper), with whom he maintains a passionate Bonnie and Clyde-style relationship. Mallory is a woman who likes to live dangerously and hides secrets that will get her and her entire crew into trouble. according to variety.
Therefore, there is little chance that Clarke and Hunnam will appear opposite each other, but the British actor could well cross paths with Adria Ariona (Hit Man) or even Richard Jenkins (Dahmer), two other names in crime casting.
Prime Video is sure to expand the rest of its distribution by announcing new names in the coming days. Stay tuned!
