BLACK DOVES: TRAILER RELEASED FOR NEW NETFLIX DRAMA

Netflix have confirmed the launch date for Black Doves, the upcoming drama starring Keira Knightley, Ben Whishaw and Sarah Lancashire, as Thursday 5th December. The streamer has also commissioned a second series.



Joining the cast are Adeel Akhtar, Finn Bennett, Luther Ford and Tracey Ullman. Set against the backdrop of London at Christmas, Black Doves is a sharp, action-filled and heartfelt story of friendship and sacrifice.



The series follows Helen Webb (Keira Knightley), a quick-witted, down to earth, dedicated wife and mother — and professional spy. For 10 years, she’s been passing on her politician husband’s secrets to the shadowy organisation she works for: the Black Doves.


When her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is assassinated, her spymaster, the enigmatic Reed (Sarah Lancashire) calls in Helen’s old friend, Sam Young (Ben Whishaw) to keep her safe.




Showrunner Joe Barton said: “I started writing the scripts for this show over last year’s Christmas holidays, fuelled by turkey sandwiches and discarded bottles of cream liquor...


"To be now going into production with a cast and crew full of people whose work I admire so much is unbelievably exciting and I couldn’t be more thrilled to get to see this show come to life.”



Black Doves lands Thursday 5th December on Netflix.
