“Female killers know their victims. They kill for powerful, for control.” Hulu has revealed the official trailer for a new serial killer thriller series titled simply Furious, arriving to watch in July streaming on Hulu this summer. This premise sounds similar to Silence of the Lambs in many ways, following a young FBI agent tracking down a serial killer. But it’s actually a remake of the 1987 feature film Black Widow, which starred Debra Winger & Theresa Russell. From executive producer Liz Meriwether, Furious follows an FBI agent, Alice Black on the hunt for a mysterious & calculating female serial killer. Both walk their own paths toward justice, and as their lives start to intertwine, the line between right & wrong begins to blur. Emmy Rossum stars as the agent Alice, and the reveal from this footage seems to be that Lola Petticrew co-stars as the killer. The main series cast also includes Scoot McNairy, Quincy Tyler Bernstine, Chloe Carrillo, Elizabeth Stahlmann, and Jake Lacy. It seems like an odd twist to make the killer into someone getting righteous vengeance and yet still make them out to be the bad guy gal. Have a look and tune in this summer.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Elizabeth Meriwether’s series Furious, direct from Hulu’s YouTube:
