Six-time Oscar nominee Amy Adams has signed on star in and executive produce the legal thriller drama miniseries "The Holdout" from Oscar winner Graham Moore ("The Imitation Game", "The Outfit"), which is based on his novel of the same name.
The show has been described as a legal drama–meets–murder investigation in the vein of "The Night Of" with a dual-timeline mystery. It is set in Los Angeles and follows a woman (Adams) who finds herself playing multiple roles – juror, attorney, investigator, and suspect.
Ten years after Maya Seale turns the tide in a hugely controversial verdict, a fellow juror is found dead in her hotel room, all evidence points to her. Now, she must prove her own innocence – by getting to the bottom of a case that is far from closed. As the present-day murder investigation weaves together with the story of what really happened during their deliberation, told by each of the jurors in turn, the secrets they have all been keeping threaten to come out – with drastic consequences for all involved.
Adams, Stacy O'Neil, and Kate Clifford executive produce through Bond Group Entertainment, alongside Drew Comins through his Creative Engine Entertainment. Fifth Season is the studio. The limited series project recently hit the marketplace and has attracted multiple offers.
Adams is next set to star in Searchlight's "Nightbitch", which she also produced through Bond Group Entertainment.
