Kiefer Sutherland has signed on to play a spy in a yet untitled upcoming spy series.
"From the moment we conceived this paranoid thriller, we immediately thought of Kiefer. We're thrilled to partner with him, Paramount+, Charlie, and Suzan to bring this show to life," said Requa and Ficarra.
The new series will stream on Paramount+ and hails from John Requa and Glenn Ficarra of "This Is Us" fame. The eight-episode season will be produced by CBS Studios.
"I've been an admirer of John Requa and Glenn Ficarra's unique body of work for some time, and I'm thrilled to be working on this exciting new project with them and Paramount+. Reuniting with David Nevins makes it all the more special. I can't wait to see you all with this show in 2022," said Sutherland.
Julie McNamara, EVP and Head of Programming at Paramount+, said, "Kiefer Sutherland and powerful, heart-pounding dramas go hand in hand. We're thrilled to have him and master storytellers John Requa and Glenn Ficarra at the helm, taking us on a very personal ride to uncover the truth. We look forward to introducing the Paramount+ audience to the service's newest addition as we continue to expand our slate of original tentpole series."
