EXCLUSIVE: John Malkovich has been tapped to star opposite Joel Kinnaman in Bishop, Prime Video‘s upcoming thriller drama series from co-creators Little Marvin and Tony Saltzman, Vertigo and Amazon MGM Studios.
In Bishop, homicide detective Bishop Graves (Kinnaman) – brilliant, battle-scarred – will put all of his skills to the test in the hunt for an elusive killer targeting San Francisco’s moneyed class. As this increasingly audacious killer develops a devoted following among the city’s powerless, Bishop becomes convinced these murders connect back to SF’s most powerful man, his own father, Lincoln Graves (Malkovich).
Little Marvin serves as showrunner of Bishop, which he and Saltzman executive produce alongside Roy Lee and Vertigo’s Miri Yoon. The project stems from Little Marvin’s overall deal at Amazon MGM Studios.
Malkovich, an Emmy winner and two-time Oscar nominee, recently starred in the Apple TV series The New Look and was seen in movies Opus, In the Hand of Dante and Sacrifice. Coming up is Martin McDonagh’s Wild Horse Nine for Searchlight, in which he stars opposite Sam Rockwell. Malkovich is repped by WME.
