DESCRIPTION: (from The CW's web site, July 2023) From BAFTA-winner Peter Moffat, J. David Shanks and Michael B. Jordan’s Outlier Society, 61ST STREET is a propulsive thriller which courses through the dark heart of the infamous Chicago criminal justice system. After Officer Logan (Mark O’Brien) kills an innocent man, attorney Franklin Roberts (Courtney B. Vance) agrees to represent him in hopes of putting Logan’s corrupt department on trial. But this alliance threatens to turn Franklin’s community—and family—against him. Two-time Emmy®-winner Courtney B. Vance (“The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story,” “Lovecraft Country”) leads an ensemble cast that includes Emmy®-nominee Aunjanue Ellis (“When They See Us,” King Richard), Andrene Ward-Hammond (“Your Honor,” “Manifest”), Mark O’Brien (“City on a Hill,” “Blue Bayou”), Holt McCallany (“Mindhunter,” “Lights Out”), Bentley Green (“Snowfall,” “Sweet Magnolias”) and Jerod Haynes (“Chicago Med,” “Good Girls”). From AMC Studios, 61ST STREET is executive produced by Moffat (“The Night Of,” “Your Honor”), Shanks (“The Chi,” “Seven Seconds,” “Shots Fired”), Jordan and Outlier Society (Creed III), Alana Mayo (Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse, Just Mercy), Jeff Freilich (“Lodge 49,” “Dispatches from Elsewhere”) and Hilary Salmon (“MotherFatherSon,” “The Night Of,” “London Spy”). |
