Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz has signed on to star alongside Liam Hemsworth in an as-yet-untitled action thriller series from writer Nick Santora (Scorpion) and director Phil Abraham (Mad Men), which is being produced for the upcoming Quibi streaming service.
As per Deadline, the series sees Hemsworth as Dodge Maynard, who – desperate to take care of his pregnant wife before a terminal illness can take his life – accepts an offer to participate in a deadly game where he soon discovers that he’s not the hunter but the prey.
Waltz was most recently seen alongside Rosa Salazar in Robert Rodriguez’s Alita: Battle Angel, and is also set to reprise his role as the iconic Bond villain Blofeld in next year’s 007 adventure No Time To Die.
