AMC reveals new teaser for Giancarlo Esposito-led series Parish featuring a trio of action, violence, and religion
AMC provided SK with an exclusive press release where fans can get a sneak peek into the latest trailer for the upcoming high-octane series Parish. Scheduled for a release in March 2024, the brand-new teaser titled Our Father, Who Art in Heaven... features Giancarlo Esposito's character reciting a verse from the Bible in a voiceover as different events unfold.
The official logline for the upcoming series, as per AMC, reads:
"In the series, Esposito stars as Gracian “Gray” Parish, a family man and proud owner of a luxury car service in New Orleans. After his son is violently murdered and his business collapses, an encounter with an old friend from his days as a wheelman resurfaces old habits, sending Gray on a high-stakes collision course with a violent criminal syndicate."
The teaser gives a glimpse into the violent and seedy world that will seemingly be portrayed in the upcoming series. Esposito's character, Gracian Parish, looks lost and in despair in a scene as he looks over his family, but it quickly translates into a cold stare in the next as he does what has to be done.
Viewers can expect action, car chases, and a whole lot of ethical dilemmas in the series as it is set to premiere on AMC and AMC+ during Spring 2024 (as per the teaser).
When it comes to the cast, as per the press release from AMC, Zackary Momoh (Doctor Sleep) plays New Orleans-based Zimbabwean gangster The Horse; Paula Malcomson (Watchmen, The Hunger Games), plays the role of Rose, Parish's wife and mother of his two children.
Skeet Ulrich (Scream, Riverdale) plays an old friend of Gray, Colin; Bonnie Mbuli (Invictus, Wallander) plays The Horse's astute and protective older sister, Shamiso Tongai.
The cast also includes Ivan Mbakop (Red Notice), who plays Horse's brother Zenzo; Arica Himmel (Mixed-ish, Black-ish) as Makayla; and Dax Rey (The Good Fight) plays The Horse's son Luke.
This thrilling series is set to start streaming on AMC and AMC+ in March 2024.
