The Stranger..
The Hobbit and Berlin Station star Richard Armitage is to front a crime drama for Netflix as the SVOD service reunites with the team behind crime drama Safe.
Armitage, whose Severin Fiala and Veronika Franz-directed feature The Lodge is at the Sundance Film Festival, is fronting The Stranger. The eight-episode series is based on Harlan Coben’s eponymous novel and is produced by Safe producer Red Production Company.
Armitage stars as Adam Price in the thriller, which sees a secret destroy his perfect life and sends him on a collision course with a deadly conspiracy. Price has a good life, two wonderful sons, and a watertight marriage, until one night a stranger sits next to him in a bar and tells him a devastating secret about his wife, Corinne. Soon Adam finds himself tangled in something far darker than even Corinne’s deception, and realizes that if he doesn’t make exactly the right moves, the conspiracy he’s stumbled into will not only ruin lives—it will end them.
The Stranger will feature eight 60-minute episodes and it goes into production in March 2019. Red Production Company is based in Manchester.

Remember the fan speculation when we heard Richard would appear in the movie 'Pilgrimage' which had many cast members playing monks;)
Have started reading The Seville Communion and enjoying the Rev Lorenzo Quart chaRActer. Reminds me of the days prior to filming of "Strike Back" when many fans speed read that novel. Then John Porter came to life..
Richard Armitage (The Hobbit) and Lia McHugh (American Woman) have also boarded the film, while Riley Keough was announced as being cast in the film last year.
The Lodge, which started production Wednesday in Montreal, tells the story of a soon-to-be-stepmom snowed in with her fiance's two children at a remote holiday village. Just as relations finally begin to thaw between the trio, strange and frightening events threaten to summon psychological demons from the woman's strict religious childhood.
The script was penned by Sergio Casci, Franz and Fiala from an original idea by Casci.
Hammer Films and FilmNation Entertainment are producing. Filmnation is also financing and serving as international sales agent, teaming with Endeavor Content for the U.S.
"Griffin? Well, hello swoon. He is absolutely, hands down, one of my all time book boyfriends. He nudged some pretty impressive ones out of the way to grab his spot, but he's worth it. He is such a sweetheart and so romantic. But there's a vulnerability to him that more than once I found myself just wanting to reach through the book and hold him. I'm sure Joy wouldn't mind. He's so sexy as well-obviously.
Listening to my advanced copy right now! Grace is so wonderful and Richard is both sultry and hilarious! I am in love with my narrators! Also, it weighs in at 8 hours and 48 minutes! NEWS: Link to Wolverine Podcast https://twitter.com/itsthewolverine/status/960930868352225281
