Annabel Scholey & Colin Morgan to Lead BBC Thriller 'Dead & Buried'
The BBC has tapped Annabel Scholey (The Sixth Commandment) and Colin Morgan (The Killing Kind) to star in the upcoming psychological thriller Dead and Buried, which wrestles with complex questions of revenge, trauma, guilt, and grief.
Scholey stars as Cathy, whose life begins to spiral in the wake of a random encounter with the man who murdered her brother 20 years prior. Morgan plays Michael, who has seemingly turned his life around post-conviction, earning an early release and building a new life and career. Still struggling under the long shadow of her own grief, Cathy grows increasingly obsessed with Michael and the happiness he appears to have found, ultimately launching a campaign of harassment designed to make him pay.
“Cathy is a wonderfully complex character and I'm excited to be bringing her to life and to taking her to dark places with this brilliant team," Scholey said in a statement.
