OFFICIAL FIRST LOOK DEBUT
AND YOU THOUGHT YOUR FIRST
JOB WAS WILD
THE RECRUIT
Netflix's new spy series premieres on Friday, December 16th.
Quote from THE RECRUIT Creator, Showrunner and Executive Producer Alexi Hawley, as told to TUDUM.com:
"It's rare to find a fresh way into a story these days. And the spy genre is no different. From Jason Bourne to James Bond, the spy world is always seen through the eyes of a veteran operative who's invariably the smartest (and toughest) guy in the room. But The Recruit enters the world of espionage through fresh eyes - Owen Hendricks - a twenty-four year old, fresh out of law school, who doesn't even have time to figure out where the bathrooms are before he's pulled into a high-stakes case. None of us can realistically dream of being James Bond, but all of us have had a first job - with co-workers we can't trust, and agendas we don't understand. Only at the CIA, those hidden agendas can get you killed."
About THE RECRUIT:
THE RECRUIT centers around Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo), a young CIA lawyer whose first week on the job turns upside down when he discovers a threatening letter by former asset Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), who plans to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of a serious crime. Owen quickly becomes entangled in a dangerous and often absurd world of power politics and mischievous players, as he travels the world in hopes of completing his assignment and making a mark at the CIA.
The series is executive produced by Centineo, Doug Liman, Gene Klein, David Bartis and Adam Ciralsky and Alexi Hawley who also serves as Creator and Showrunner. The series also stars Fivel Stewart, Vondie Curtis Hall, Kristian Bruun, Aarti Mann, Colton Dunn and Daniel Quincy Annoh.
