Matt Charman, the Oscar-nominated writer whose credits include Bridge of Spies, Treason, and Hostage, has landed a new U.K. crime thriller at Prime Video.
Dirty promises a fresh take on the U.K. crime drama as it explores a game of cat-and-mouse between mother, a revered Detective Chief Inspector, and daughter, a trainee detective. Production is set to begin in September. Dirty is produced by Binocular in association with Amazon MGM Studios.
Nicole Clemens, VP of international originals at Amazon MGM Studios, commented: “Having long admired Matt’s exceptional work, I am thrilled we are collaborating with him on this remarkable project. Centered on two extraordinarily powerful women, it delivers the bold, character-driven storytelling that Global Prime Video audiences have come to expect, and we look forward to sharing it with viewers around the world.”
Charman, who will serve as showrunner, added, “I love the power and the volatility of these two women. There are no limits on what either of them is capable of, which makes the potential of every scene explosive. Nicole and the entire team at Amazon understood the show instantly—they’re deeply passionate about the blend of character-driven drama and relentless propulsion. I can’t wait to share what we’ve been cooking up.”
