NBC
NBC and Universal Television have unveiled the teaser for its upcoming high-concept crime procedural series “The Hunting Party” starring “Manifest” and “Quantum Leap” alum Melissa Roxburgh.

The story ties to ‘The Pit’, an underground and highly classified maxium security panopticon-style prison housing the “most violent and dangerous criminals the world has ever known”.

The story begins when an explosion rocks the facility, allowing the inmates to escape en masse. Roxburgh plays ex-FBI agent Rebecca Henderson who is called in to lead an elite task force of investigators.

Their mission is to re-apprehend these cunning and lethal escaped convicts along with discovering who was behind the massive breach and why.

Also starring are Nick Wechsler (“Revenge”) as Oliver Odell, Patrick Sabongui (“The Flash”) as Ryan Hassani, Josh McKenzie (“La Brea”) as Shane Florence, Sara Garcia (“Ride”) as Jennifer Morales and Kyra Leroux (“Riverdale”) in an unspecified recurring role.

Creator JJ Bailey co-showruns the series with Jake Coburn. Both are writers and executive producers alongside Keto Shimizu, while Thor Freudenthal directs the pilot and executive produces.

“The Hunting Party” will premiere on NBC on February 3rd.
