“Revenge Is Sweet” says the tagline on this new video of Hulu’s upcoming Reprisal, to which star Abigail Spencer, if full-on noir femme fatale mode, whispers, “So I’ll be seeing you soon.”
And that pretty much is the tone of this action-packed revenge thriller from creator Josh Corbin. The set-up: Spencer’s character wants to get even with her brother and, as Hulu puts it, “his bombastic gang of gearheads.”
When someone asks the aggrieved sister why her brother’s gang would drag her through a field chained to the back of a truck, the perfectly Lauren Bacallish response is a sultry “I’m afraid that part’s a little more complicated.”
In addition to Spencer, Reprisal stars Rodrigo Santoro, Mena Massoud, Rhys Wakefield, Madison Davenport, Gilbert Owuor, David Dastmalchian, W. Earl Brown, Craig Tate, Wavyy Jonez, Shane Callahan and Rory Cochrane.
Showrunner Corbin also exec produces along with Warren Littlefield (Hulu’s The Handmaid’s Tale), Barry Jossen and Jonathan Van Tulleken. Ann Johnson and Graham Littlefield serve as co-executive producers. Reprisal is produced by A+E Studios in association with The Littlefield Company.
Reprisal premieres all episodes Friday, December 6 only on Hulu.
