PILOT NEWS
Erin Kellyman (Eleanor the Great) and country singer and actor Tim McGraw (1883) will star alongside Kevin Bacon in the upcoming Hulu drama pilot Southern Bastards which will follow a tenacious military vet into Craw County, Alabama, in search of her estranged father.

Bacon will play Earl, the son of the legendary Sheriff Bert, who ruled Craw County with an iron fist. (Deadline)
NEW INTERNATIONAL SERIES NEWS
A new sci-fi thriller will be airing on the BBC with Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Loki), Stuart Martin (Miss Scarlet and the Duke) and Iain De Caestecker (Agents of SHIELD and The Winter King) starring. Sutherland, the six-part series, will be set in the near future in the far north of Scotland, where Mbatha-Raw will play Mirren, who works as flight director at Paravel Space Hub for the UK’s first crewed mission to the stars. Martin will play local detective Logan, who is drawn back into Mirren’s world as a decades-old conspiracy begins to emerge while De Caestecker will play the central role of Callum. Just hours after launch, however, a series of unexplained events throws Sutherland into turmoil, threatening everything she has worked towards.
