THE PUNISHER AND HALO STARS JOIN TESSA THOMPSON IN NEW NETFLIX SERIES

The Punisher's Jon Bernthal and Halo's Pablo Schreiber are set to join Tessa Thompson in an upcoming limited series for Netflix.

Per Deadline, Bernthal and Schreiber will join Thompson in an upcoming Netflix limited series titled, His & Hers, from filmmaker William Oldroyd. The series is based of Alice Feeney's novel of the same name and is "set in the sweltering heat of Atlanta where Anna (Thompson) lives in haunting reclusivity and is fading away from her friends and career as a journalist. But when she overhears about a murder in Dahlonega – the sleepy town where she grew up – she is snapped back to life, pouncing on the case and searching for answers. Detective Jack Harper (Bernthal) is strangely suspicious of her involvement, chasing her into the crosshairs of his own investigation. There are two sides to every story, his and hers, which means someone is always lying."
