BBC One is developing a new psychological thriller series from the director of Hustle.
From Otto Bathurst, who also made Five Days, Criminal Justice sees main character Ben Coulter framed for a murder in a complex conspiracy. It will star Ben Whishaw (Perfume), Con O’Neill (Waking the Dead) and Pete Postlethwaite.
The BBC is working on five hour-long episodes of the show, which is being billed as a "psychological thriller with sex, murder and action at its core".
It is not yet known when it will go to air. Anke Stoll, head of acquisitions for the show's international distributor, Portman Film & Television, said it "brings a cast and crew with a fantastic pedigree".
