Wolf is BBC One’s latest crime thriller offering, and we couldn’t be more excited.
From Happy Valley and Better toInside Man
and Crossfire,
the BBC has wowed us consistently with its recent
thriller (https://www.stylist.co.uk/tag/thriller)
output.
Now, another meaty new drama is on the way and it looks like one we’ll have no problem getting our teeth stuck into.
Wolf is set to be BBC One’s major new crime drama and it’s based on Mo Hayder’s bestselling Jack Caffery novels.
Ukweli Roach (The Midwich Cuckoos (https://www.stylist.co.uk/entertainment/tv/the-midwich-cuckoos-keeley-hawes-sky/513967)) will play DI Jack Caffery, and now that the BBC has unveiled first-look images from the show, we can’t wait for this adaptation
to unfold on the small screen. With that, here’s everything you need to know about
Wolf
The upcoming six-part series will be based on the novels (https://www.stylist.co.uk/tag/novel) of Mo Hayder, who rose to prominence within the crime thriller genre for her terrifying tales and shocking twists.
The BBC drama will blend a cold case (that has a personal connection to the lead detective) with some sinister parallel storylines.
“DI Jack Caffery is a young man searching for himself,” according to the BBC synopsis. “Obsessed with the neighbour he believes murdered his 10-year-old brother in the 90s, Jack finds himself trying to right the wrongs of others, but at what cost?
“In an isolated house in Monmouthshire, the wealthy Anchor-Ferrers family find themselves the victims of a psychopath’s cruel games, trapped and terrorised.
When the two narratives collide, it’s a thrilling, nail-biting and
deeply disturbing race against time.”
As well as Roach leading the cast as Caffery, the cast is jam-packed with familiar faces.
Sacha Dhawan (Doctor Who) and Iwan Rheon (Game Of Thrones (https://stylist.co.uk/tag/game-of-thrones)) will star as Honey and Molina, a pair of mismatched professionals who are forced together on a job.
Sian Reese-Williams (Line Of Duty (https://stylist.co.uk/tag/line-of-duty)) will star as DI Maia Lincoln, a woman with a case to prove; Juliet Stevenson (Bend It Like Beckham) will star as Matilda Anchor-Ferrers, an intelligent yet neurotic housewife; and Owen Teale (Line Of Duty, Game Of Thr
ones) will play Oliver Anchor-Ferrers, Matilda’s wealthy and well-connected husband.
