David Tennant and Hayley Atwell are to appear in a groundbreaking new Netflix series called Criminal.
The Marvel actors will both guest star in the 12-part crime procedural, which will be uniquely set across four different countries.
Each episode will span 45 minutes and take place solely within the confines of a police interview suite in France, Spain, Germany or the UK, to give a unique perspective on the mental conflict between detectives and suspects.
