Prime Video has released an intense trailer for its upcoming six-part revenge thriller, Malice, written by BAFTA-winning screenwriter James Wood. The series, described as a “darkly delicious” thriller, presents a “class-skewering revenge story” set against the picturesque backdrop of Greece.

The plot centers around Jack Whitehall, who portrays the charming yet complex character Adam Healey. During a family holiday, Adam infiltrates the affluent Tanner family with the intent to dismantle them from within. This series is poised to attract fans of high-stakes drama and intricate narratives, particularly those who enjoyed acclaimed shows like The White Lotus.

The creators of Malice have a solid reputation in the television industry. Directors Mike Barker and Leonora Lonsdale bring their expertise, with Barker known for his work on The Handmaid’s Tale and Lonsdale having directed the 2020 mystery series The Pale Horse. Their involvement raises expectations for a riveting viewing experience.

The storyline unfolds as Adam, a charismatic tutor, cleverly ingratiates himself into the lives of the wealthy Tanner family while they vacation in Greece. When the family’s nanny suddenly falls ill, Adam sees an opportunity to further entrench himself in their lives. According to the series synopsis, his true vengeful intentions begin to surface as he manipulates family dynamics, pitting Jamie Tanner, played by David Duchovny, against his partner Nat, portrayed by Carice Van Houten.

As the plot develops, Adam’s obsession with the family raises suspicions. Those who investigate his past find themselves embroiled in a perilous situation. With Adam’s plans threatening to unravel, Jamie must confront the possibility that Adam is behind the family’s recent misfortunes. Viewers are left questioning whether it is too late for Jamie to save his loved ones.
