On May 1, the new Hulu series Shardlake will debut online.
Drenched in mystery, suspense and deception, this four-part drama, based on the first novel in C.J. Sansom’s internationally popular Tudor murder mystery series, is an eerie whodunnit adventure, set in 16th century England during the dissolution of the monasteries. Shardlake’s (Arthur Hughes) sheltered life as a lawyer is turned upside down when Cromwell (Sean Bean) instructs him to investigate the murder of one of his commissioners at a monastery in the remote town of Scarnsea.
The commissioner was gathering evidence to close the monastery and it is now imperative for Cromwell’s own political survival that Shardlake both solves the murder and closes the monastery. He leaves Shardlake in no doubt that failure is not an option. Cromwell insists that he is accompanied by Jack Barak (Anthony Boyle) to Scarnsea, where the duo are met with hostility, suspicion and paranoia by the monks who fear for their future and will seemingly stop at nothing to preserve their order.
Here is a trailer for Shardlake:
