Paramount+ has dropped the official trailer for Sexy Beast, its upcoming drama series prequel to the 2000 cult British gangster movie. James McArdle, Emun Elliott, Tamsin Greig, Stephen Moyer and Sarah Greene star in the series set to premiere January 25 on the streamer.
The trailer gives us a first look into the origins of Gal (McArdle) and Don’s (Elliott) complicated relationship as they find themselves descending into the seductive madness of the London criminal world during the vibrant and volatile 1990s, while Gal’s budding relationship with DeeDee (Greene) threatens everything in their world.
Gal and Don are best friends and small-town thieves, living the good life in ‘90s East London. Greene’s DeeDee Harrison is a captivating adult film star whose ambitions to control her own personal destiny and her love affair with Gal Dove put her in danger. Moyer is Teddy Bass, a treacherous, rising name in the gangster world, who seduces Gal and Don into his criminal web, and Greig is Don’s pathologically controlling and formidable older sister Cecilia.
