Parish Teaser Finds Giancarlo Esposito Unleashing Some Righteous Pain
Set to hit screens in Spring 2024, here's a look at a new teaser for AMC's Giancarlo Esposito (Better Call Saul)-starring series Parish.
It's been close to two months since we last heard from AMC's Giancarlo Esposito (Better Call Saul, The Mandalorian)-starring Parish – not surprising since it wasn't exactly clear when in 2024 that the six-episode series would debut. Thankfully, we have a righteously tense new teaser (above) to pass along that sets the premiere window as Spring 2024. Series star & executive producer Esposito portrays Gracian "Gray" Parish, a family man and proud owner of a luxury car service in New Orleans. After his son is violently murdered and his business collapses, an encounter with an old friend from his days as a wheelman resurfaces old habits – sending Gray on a high-stakes collision course with a violent criminal syndicate.
Joining Esposito for the New Orleans-filmed series are Zachary Momoh (The Nevers, Harriet, Doctor Sleep) as New Orleans-based Zimbabwean gangster The Horse; SAG-AFTRA Award-nominee Paula Malcomson (Watchmen, The Hunger Games, Ray Donovan) as Parish's wife and mother to his two children, Rose; Skeet Ulrich (Scream, Riverdale) as an old acquaintance to Gray, Colin; Bonnie Mbuili (Invictus, Wallander) as Shamiso Tongai, The Horse's smart and protective older sister; Ivan Mbakop (Hawkeye, Red Notice) as The Horse's brother, Zenzo; Arica Himmel (Mixed-ish, Black-ish) as Gray and Rose's daughter Makayla; and Dax Rey (The Good Fight, Chicago Fire) as The Horse's son Luke.
In addition, Bradley Whitford (The West Wing, Get Out, The Handmaid's Tale) recurs as Anton, the charming and intelligent face of industrial business in Louisiana who covertly heads a criminal organization, while Amanda Brugel (The Handmaid's Tale, Orphan Black), guest-stars as Sister Anne, who has a mysterious past with Gray.
AMC's Parish is based on the hit U.K. series The Driver, created by Danny Brocklehurst & Jim Poyser and produced by AMC Studios (in association with A+E Studios & Thruline Entertainment). Brocklehurst serves as co-creator and executive producer. Eduardo Canto and Ryan Maldonado serve as showrunners and executive producers; Esposito also executive produces alongside Brocklehurst, Poyser, Jolyon Symonds, and David Morrissey for Scribbler Films, Josh Kesselman, Danny Sherman, Barry Jossen, Tana Jamieson, Theo Travers, and Red Production's Nicola Shindler.
