Sky Atlantic HD and CANAL + are delighted to announce that Stephen Dillane and Clémence Poésy are to head the Anglo-French cast of The Tunnel.

Dillane, best known to Sky Atlantic viewers as Game of Thrones' Stannis Baratheon, and Birdsong star Poésy will play detectives Karl Roebuck and Elise Wassermann in the crime drama, which is based on Danish / Swedish collaboration The Bridge.

The series, which will be directed by Cesar Award winning filmmaker Dominik Moll, sees Detectives Roebuck and Wassermann sent to investigate on behalf of their respective countries when a prominent French politician is found dead on the border between the UK and France. However, the case takes a surreal turn when a shocking discovery is made at the crime scene, forcing the French and British police into an uneasy partnership. As the serial killer uses ever more elaborate and ingenious methods to highlight the moral bankruptcy of modern society, Karl and Elise are drawn deeper into his increasingly personal agenda.

Joining them are Joseph Mawle, who will play social worker Stephen Beaumont, and Tom Bateman as UK journalist Danny Hillier who unintentionally becomes caught in the serial killer’s web while Ashes To Ashes' Keeley Hawes and the venerable Liz Smith (The Royal Family) will join them from episode two.

Tobi Bakare, Jeanne Balibar, Thibault de Montalembert, Mathieu Carrièrre, Angel Coulby, Jack Lowden will also star.

I thought this would be zombie-like from the advert I saw

This looks good, but they've already done a remake of The Bridge :suspect:

So I guess this is a re-remake

Started watching this last week, just have 9+10 to go.

It's a shame it's so closely connected to the Swedish/Danish version, because the plot is virtually identical :laugh: I really like Dillane though. Poesy is good but not a touch on Saga Noren :love: Pretty great supporting cast, too.
