Apple TV has released the official trailer for “Last Seen,” an upcoming eight-episode drama series starring Patrick Brammall as a former detective searching for his missing daughter, according to Apple TV. The series is scheduled to premiere globally on September 9th, with weekly episodes running through October 7th.
The Plot and Production Behind “Last Seen”
According to Apple TV, Brammall stars as police detective Ian Ridley, whose life collapses after his young daughter, Maggie, disappears without a trace. Over a decade later, Ridley works as a police dispatcher and still refuses to accept that his daughter is dead. The central conflict ignites when Ridley answers a distress call from a teenage girl he becomes convinced is Maggie, giving his long-standing obsession a new lead. Viewers are left to question whether he is right or simply hearing what he desperately wants to hear.
The series is written and executive produced by Kris Mrksa, known for “Requiem” and “No Escape,” and is based on Ryan David Jahn’s award-winning novel “The Dispatcher,” according to production details from Apple TV. Emmy-nominated filmmaker Christian Schwochow, whose credits include “The Crown,” directs and executive produces the project. Filming took place entirely in Victoria, Australia.
