Amazon unleashes terror in the North Sea in trailer for supernatural thriller series The Rig

November 30, 2022 by Amie Cranswick

Prime Video has released a trailer and images for The Rig, the upcoming supernatural thriller series which stars Iain Glen, Emily Hampshire, Martin Compston and Mark Addy.

The series follows the crew of an oil rig stationed off the Scottish coast as a mysterious fog enshrouds them, which brings supernatural forces that take hold, preventing them from returning to the mainland.

The Rig sees the crew of the Kinloch Bravo oil rig stationed off the Scottish coast in the dangerous waters of the North Sea. When they are due to be collected and return to the mainland, a mysterious and all-enveloping fog rolls through. The rig is hit by massive tremors, and they find themselves cut off from all communication with the shore and the outside world. As the crew endeavour to discover what’s driving this unknown force, a major accident forces them to ask questions about who they can really trust. Bonds are broken, allegiances formed and generational fault lines are exposed. The crew of the Bravo will be driven to the limits of both their loyalties and their endurance leading to a confrontation with forces beyond their imagination.

Also featuring in the cast of The Rig are Rochenda Sandall, Owen Teale, Richard Pepple, Mark Bonnar, Calvin Demba, Emun Elliott, Abraham Popoola, Stuart McQuarrie, Molly Vevers, Cameron Fulton, and Nikhil Parmar.

The Rig premieres on Prime Video on January 6th.
