“I’m a huge fan of Nic’s work, so the opportunity to work with him, and for a company like Amazon, with this type of material is very exciting,” said Teller in a statement announcing his casting.

Co-written with Ed Brubaker (Westworld, Captain America: The Winter Soldier), the series will see Teller as Martin, a police officer entangled in the world of assassins. The show will take place in the criminal underbelly of Los Angeles, and will explore various killers’ existential journeys in becoming samurai in the City of Angels.
