Zazie Beetz & Tom Hardy Set To Join Apple TV+ Series ‘Lazarus’

A series based on the Joona Linna book by Lars Kepler and starring Tom Hardy as Venom and Zazie Beetz as the Joker is headed to Apple TV+ in the way of Lazarus, an upcoming series.

Deadline reports that the show will follow police detective Saga Bauer (Beetz), an undercover investigator who takes residency in a maximum-security psychiatric hospital to learn more about the infamous killer Jurek Walter (Hardy).

Tom Hardy And Zazie Beetz To Star In ‘Lazarus’ Series

There is a new series that Zazie Beetz and Tom Hardy will work on together. In the final stages of development, Lazarus still needs to clinch the deal, and some deals are still being nailed down. It will star the 31-year-old Joker actress and the 45-year-old Mad Max: Fury Road actor.

“Lazarus” stars Beetz and Hardy as an intriguing leading couple. Beetz recently finished her role on the FX TV drama “Atlanta.” She has also starred in “Bullet Train,” “The Harder They Fall,” and voiced in movies like “Invincible” and “The Bad Guys.” Her upcoming roles include “Joker: Folie á Deux” and Steven Soderbergh’s HBO Max series “Full Circle.”

“Taboo” was Hardy’s last significant TV role before he became a recurring character on Netflix’s “Peaky Blinders,” a show about the darker side of late 19th-century London, and “Havoc” was his last significant film role before he became a recurring character in “Venom: Let There Be Carnage.”

There is a movie that he’s currently working on with Jodie Comer, Austin Butler, and Michael Shannon about a biker gang called “The Bikeriders.” “Venom 3” will also be released sometime in the future. “Lazarus” is a film that enables Beetz to showcase her dramatic acting chops while playing a serial killer, which sounds promising. “Lazarus,” which will likely premiere on Apple TV+ sometime next year, is sure to attract critics and audiences alike.

The Series Is Based On Lars Kepler’s Joona Linna Books

Based on a series of books written by Lars Kepler, a pseudonym for Alexandra Coelho Ahndoril and Alexander Ahndoril, Lazarus is based on some of the best-selling Joona Linna novels, which were lauded by outlets including the New York Times, Washington Post, and Entertainment Weekly, and sold over 17 million copies worldwide.

More than 17 million copies of Lars Kepler’s acclaimed book series are sold worldwide. “Lazarus,” set in a maximum-security psychiatric hospital, follows detective Saga Bauer as she goes undercover to uncover the secrets of serial killer Jurek Walter that are being kept hidden from her. A new series of the series will feature Beetz as Bauer, while Hardy will take on the role of Walter.

Members Of The Other Cast And Crew Of The Series

As part of their Hardy Son & Baker banner, Hardy and his partner Dean Baker will write, direct, and executive produces “Lazarus,” which Oystein Karlsen will write, direct, and executive produce along with Hardy. They have previously starred in several television shows, including Hardy’s FX series “Taboo.”

“Lazarus” is also executive produced by Beetz, David Rysdahl, the Ahndoril family, Niclas Salomonsson, and other producers. Heather Kadin, Peter Micelli, and Jack Whigham deliver through the network of A+E, while Barry Jossen, Tana Jamieson, and Peter Micelli do this through the network of Range.

Shortly, a new drama series will be coming to Apple TV+, and the audience will be able to mark their word on the series during the following year. What do you think of the series so far? Are you looking forward to it? Let us know what you think by leaving a comment below.
