'Dept. Q': A Darkly Comic Crime Procedural with a Stellar Cast

Still from the series 'Dept. Q'

Set to premiere on May 29, the show stars Matthew Goode, known for his roles in Watchmen, The Imitation Game, and Downton Abbey.

Netflix has released the first trailer for Dept. Q, an exciting new crime thriller series from Scott Frank, the acclaimed creator of The Queen's Gambit. Joining him are Leah Byrne, Kelly Macdonald, and Catriona Stirling.

In the trailer, Goode portrays DCI Carl Morck, a talented yet troubled detective grappling with the aftermath of his partner's murder. The series follows Morck as he heads a new cold case unit in Edinburgh, where he and his team delve into unresolved mysteries that lead them to uncover dangerous secrets.

Dept. Q promises to deliver a thrilling experience reminiscent of popular series like Broadchurch and Apple TV+'s Slow Horses, both known for their engaging mysteries and complex characters infused with dark humor. With a strong cast that includes Macdonald, recognized for her performances in Trainspotting and No Country for Old Men, this nine-part procedural is poised to captivate audiences when it debuts on Netflix later this month.
