AMC has released a trailer and key art for the original series Dark Winds. Based on Tony Hillerman’s Leaphorn & Chee book series, the 1970s-set thriller follows Navajo police officers Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) and deputy Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon) as they investigate a series of seemingly unrelated crimes; take a look here…
Set in 1971 on a remote outpost of the Navajo Nation near Monument Valley, Dark Winds follows Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon, The Son, Westworld, Fargo) of the Tribal Police as he is besieged by a series of seemingly unrelated crimes. The closer he digs to the truth, the more he exposes the wounds of his past. He is joined on this journey by his new deputy, Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon, The Red Road, Roswell, New Mexico). Chee, too, has old scores to settle from his youth on the reservation. Together, the two men battle the forces of evil, each other and their own personal demons on the path to salvation.
Dark Winds premieres on June 12th on AMC.
