‘Full Circle’: Zazie Beetz to Lead Steven Soderbergh Limited Series at HBO Max
HBO Max is working with Steven Soderbergh, Ed Solomon, and Casey Silver again in Full Circle, a limited series from the three executive producers. Soderbergh will direct all six episodes of the series, Solomon will write, and Atlanta star Zazie Beetz will lead the cast.
In Full Circle, taking place in present-day New York City, an investigation into a botched kidnapping uncovers long-held secrets connecting multiple characters and cultures. Beetz will reportedly play an agent for the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, per Deadline.
“Even by Ed’s standards this is a complex narrative that manages to be both kaleidoscopic and intimate,” Soderbergh said in a statement when the series was ordered. “Our task now is to assemble a great cast and make sure we execute at the level the scripts deserve.”
“We are thrilled to be working with Steven, Ed, and Casey again after the masterful crime drama, No Sudden Move,” Joey Chavez, executive vice president of original drama, HBO Max added. “This new limited series is full of twists and turns in the way only this team can do.”
HBO Max dropped Soderbergh, Solomon, and Silver’s film No Sudden Move on July 1. It stars Don Cheadle, Benicio Del Toro, Kieran Culkin, David Harbour, Jon Hamm, Ray Liotta, Bill Duke, Amy Seimetz, Brendan Fraser, Noah Jupe, Craig muMs Grant, Julia Fox, and Frankie Shaw.
Beetz most recently starred in Bullet Train alongside Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock, Joey King, Brian Tyree Henry, Michael Shannon, and more.
