When Apple TV+ decides it's going to get some big names for a new TV project, it doesn't tend to do things in half measures. So, for its newly-announced thriller series Dope Thief, not only does it have some massive stars in leading roles, but also the inimitable Ridley Scott on board directing the pilot episode.
Scott's bombastic tone and willingness to take stories to dark places certainly looks like a key touchstone for the series, which will star Brian Tyree Henry and Wagner Moura whose criminal tactics take a dark turn on a job. With a generous handful of awards to their collective name, that's a great cast list already, for a show that just got its first trailer.
