Sky has dropped the full trailer for the upcoming limited series ‘Task‘, the intense seven-part crime drama from acclaimed creator Brad Ingelsby (Mare of Easttown), starring Mark Ruffalo (I Know This Much Is True, The Avengers) and Tom Pelphrey (Ozark, Iron Fist).
Set in the working-class suburbs of Philadelphia, ‘Task’ follows an FBI agent, Tom (Ruffalo), who assembles a special Task Force to end a series of violent, well-coordinated robberies. Things take a morally complex turn when the team discovers the heists are being orchestrated by an unsuspecting family man, played by Pelphrey, forcing them to question how far justice should go when desperation collides with circumstance.
The series also introduces Martha Plimpton (Raising Hope, The Good Wife) as Kathleen McGinty, a career FBI agent who recruits Tom to head up the task force just as she is forced into retirement, and Mireille Enos (The Killing, World War Z) as Susan Brandis, Tom’s loving wife and the reason he left the priesthood.
