“Someone killed my child… and now I’m gonna kill him.” Prime Video has debuted an official trailer for The English, which is co-produced by both Amazon and BBC for distribution in both the US and the UK. It recently premiered at the 2022 London Film Festival. The series is about an Englishwoman who travels to the American west in the 1800s. The series follows a woman as she seeks revenge on the man she sees as responsible for the death of her son. There she connects with an ex-cavalry scout and member of the Pawnee Nation named Eli Whipp, played by Chaske Spencer. Who looks like a totally badass character?! The series stars Emily Blunt as the Englishwoman, with an ensemble cast featuring Rafe Spall, Toby Jones, Tom Hughes, Stephen Rea, Valerie Pachner, Ciarán Hinds, Malcolm Storry, and plenty others. This is a superb trailer, using some clever music choices to amp things up and play with the editing. Also – this just looks like a fantastic series!! Teaming up to take out the trash in America’s wild wild west. Enjoy.
