The BBC and HBO Max have released the first trailer for the upcoming thriller series The Tourist which stars Jamie Dornan as a British man who wakes up with no memory of who he is after being pursued and ran of the road by a truck in the Australian outback; take a look here…
Jamie Dornan stars as a British man who finds himself in the glowing red heart of the Australian outback, being pursued by a vast tank truck trying to drive him off the road. An epic cat and mouse chase unfolds and the man later wakes in hospital, hurt, but somehow alive. Except he has no idea who he is. With merciless figures from his past pursuing him, The Man’s search for answers propels him through the vast and unforgiving outback.
Full of shocking, surprising, funny and brutal turns, THE TOURIST is set in a world populated by quirky, enigmatic characters and off-beat comedy punctuates high-stakes action. At its heart, however, is a story of self-discovery with a ticking timebomb underneath: as The Man starts to uncover the mystery of who he was, he’s also forced to ask who he is now – and fast. Will he unlock the secrets of his identify before those who are trying to kill him catch up with him?
The Tourist also stars Danielle Macdonald (Dumplin’), Shalom Brune-Franklin (Line of Duty), Ólafur Darri Ólafsson (The Missing) and Alex Dimitriades (The Cry), and Damon Herriman (Mindhunter) and streams on BBC iPlayer from January 1st and will follow on HBO Max sometime in 2021.
