David Fincher's latest Netflix original series (following House of Cards) stars Holt McCallany and Jonathan Groff as FBI agents who solve murders with advice gleaned from interviews of imprisoned serial killers. The 1979-set series also stars Anna Torv, and is based on the real-life work of FBI profiler John Douglas, who was the inspiration for the Jack Crawford character in the various Hannibal Lecter books as well as for Jason Gideon on Criminal Minds. Joe Penhall (The Road) penned the adaptation of Douglas' book, while Fincher directs the first three episodes and produces the series (alongside Charlize Theron, among others).
