Get ready for a thrilling ride with 'Gone': A Chilling Cat-and-Mouse Chase! This new ITV series, penned by the talented George Kay, promises to keep you on the edge of your seat. But here's where it gets controversial...
'Gone' stars the incredible David Morrissey and Eve Myles, who bring their A-game to this intense thriller. Set in the picturesque yet eerie surroundings of a private school, a mysterious forest, and the tranquil city of Bristol, the story unfolds around Headmaster Michael Polly, played by Morrissey. As the prime suspect in his wife's disappearance, Michael's seemingly upstanding character is put to the test by the fearless Detective Annie Cassidy, portrayed by Myles.
Inspired by real-life crime experts, 'Gone' is partly based on the book 'To Hunt A Killer' and boasts an impressive team of consultants. Richard Laxton, known for 'Mrs Wilson', directs this gripping series, which also features a stellar cast including Jennifer Macbeth, Arthur Hughes, and Rupert Evans.
Morrissey, fresh from his chilling performances in 'Sherwood', reunites with Kay, with whom he previously collaborated on 'The Long Shadow'. Kay, the mastermind behind Netflix's 'Lupin' and Apple TV's 'Hijack', is currently working on another highly anticipated project, 'War', starring Dominic West and Sienna Miller.
Kay shares his excitement about this new venture, saying, "In a story about privilege and prejudice, the truth is tantalizingly close. Or so Annie believes." ITV's drama boss, Polly Hill, adds, "The incredible talent both on and off screen has crafted a captivating story that will keep audiences guessing."
'Gone' is produced by Mark Hedges and executive produced by Kay, Willow Grylls, and Matt Sandford. This thrilling series is a collaboration between New Pictures and Observatory Pictures for ITV, with All3Media International as the international distributor.
