New Show Introduction: Inside Men

Posted in New Shows, News, Television, Video on June 16, 2012| Leave a Comment »

On June 20, the new 4-part BBC America series, part of the cable network’s “Dramaville”, Inside Men will debut at 10 PM.

The series centers on three employees of a security depot who plan and execute a multi-million pound (i.e., dollars) cash heist. The cast includes Steven Mackintosh (Luther and Camelot), as John, manager of the cash counting house who has become fed up with his humdrum lifestyle. His two accomplices include depot security guard Chris, played by Ashley Walters (Outcasts) and forklift driver Marcus, played by Warren Brown (Luther). The characters are unique because they are not seasoned criminals, but everyday men who notice an opportunity, weigh the risks and take a leap. The series is a psychological study of how men cope once they step out of their comfort zones and cross the moral line, risking freedom and the fallout of their own social consciences.

Here is a trailer for Inside Men.
