Charlie Cox Could Be A Double Agent At MI6 In Netflix’s Treason Trailer

Netflix reveals a new trailer from the drama limited series Treason, poising that Daredevil star Charlie Cox could be playing a double agent at MI6.

Netflix releases a new trailer for spy-thriller Treason, giving fans a fresh look at the show and Charlie Cox’s role. Treason tells the story of the newly appointed head of the MI6, Adam Lawrence (Cox), as his past comes back to put his life out of axis with the arrival of Kara, a Russian spy with whom he has a complicated relationship. Adam becomes forced to question everything and everyone in his life in a story that promises many twists and turns along the way.

Netflix revealed a new trailer from the drama limited series Treason, which suggests that Daredevil star Charlie Cox might be playing a double agent at MI6. Cox appears following a turn in She-Hulk, where he last portrayed his iconic role of superhero Daredevil, which originated at Netflix. The new Treason trailer starts with Cox’s Adam narrating that someone tried to kill the MI6 chief, which led him to his current position as the organization’s leader. As the youngest MI6 head, Adam quickly becomes a suspect for the CIA in the killing attempt. The trailer then goes on to imply Adam’s a double agent working with past flame Kara; something fans will only be able to confirm when Treason premieres December 26th.

What Fans Can Expect From Treason

As the new trailer shows, Netflix viewers can expect an expansive and mysterious story from Treason, as the spy-thriller series keeps fans guessing which side characters are on during the show’s six episodes. Treason should escape Netflix’s fame for creating inconsistent original content. The trailer looked great, displaying an enthralling story with great cinematography and an exciting cast. A significant point in the show’s favor relates to who is penning the series, as Oscar-nominated writer Matt Charman envisioned the story. This should excite viewers, as Charman wrote the acclaimed spy flick Bridge of Spies, which got six Oscar nominations, including Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay.

Another central point that will have fans tuning in is the cast behind the project. The ever-charming Cox leads the cast as possible MI6 double agent Adam Lawrence. He’s joined by Black Widow’s Olga Kurylenko, who’s set to star in the upcoming Marvel team movie Thunderbolts. Kurylenko portrays the mysterious and dangerous Kara, a Russian spy from his past who promises to give fans a lot of drama as she attempts to stand in the way of his marriage to Maddy, played by Game of Thrones’ Oona Chaplin. A triangular relationship forms between Kara, Adam, and Maddy, with all three of them trying to expose each other’s secrets and find out who can be trusted amid political and personal turmoil.

Charlie Cox’s Return Is Good For Netflix

Cox’s homecoming will surely benefit Netflix, as the actor has become more prevalent in recent years and should bring his audience to the streamer’s Treason. Cox ascended to stardom through the lead role in Netflix’s Marvel series Daredevil. The show became one of the streamer’s biggest series, spawning an entire universe of Marvel shows on Netflix. After the creation of competitor Disney+, Netflix opted to cancel Daredevil after the release of its third, and possibly best, season. Luckily for fans of the show, Cox returned as Daredevil in the 2021 global phenomenon Spider-Man: No Way Home. The actor’s currently waiting to start production on Daredevil: Born Again, which should serve as a soft reboot for Netflix’s version of Daredevil. With his recent popularity surge after properly joining the MCU, Cox should get audiences seated for Netflix’s Treason when the series premieres on December 26th.
