NBC Releases New Teaser for Crime Series The Hunting Party

Following the previously released teaser, there is now an extended teaser for NBC's upcoming crime series The Hunting Party.
Government agencies always have some secrets that the public is never allowed to know about. They succeed because the secrets are well guarded, but what happens when something goes wrong and those secrets get out? Worse yet, what if those secrets have real-world consequences?

16629 The Hunting Party

The premise of Manifest actress Melissa Roxburgh’s new series is based on a government secret that grows more sinister with every turn. In The Hunting Party, Roxburgh plays a law enforcement agent called in when a government secret is publicly revealed.

A small team is formed after violent criminals escape from a secret underground prison and wreak havoc on the public. In addition to the official synopsis for the series below, NBC has also released a full-length trailer for the series, which premieres on Monday, February 3.

"A high-concept crime procedural about a small team of investigators who are assembled to track down and capture the most dangerous killers our country has ever seen, all of whom have just escaped from a top-secret prison that’s not supposed to exist."

The series teaser released earlier by NBC teased the basic premise by introducing The Pit, a secret prison where the government holds the worst criminals. An accident corrupts the integrity of the prison and the criminals inside escape, while some die in the explosion.

The trailer below this news item goes into more detail about the plot of the series, revealing that the prison may have been secretly used to experiment on its inmates. Since some of them are presumed dead, it is no surprise that the prison staff got away with it for so long.

Roxburgh plays Rebecca, who is part of a team that must find these escaped prisoners. There is a sense of urgency in these cases because the perpetrators have returned to civilian life and resumed their habits. As if the mysteries weren't enough, Rebecca discovers that the explosion was no accident and that someone wanted these perpetrators out there. The question, among many others, is who and why?

The team begins the important task of capturing the escaped convicts. They have spread out to different corners of the country and have already begun murdering their next victims. Worse, some have escalated their methods. What happened to them in The Pit?

Roxburgh leads the cast as Rebecca Henderson. Other cast members include Nick Wechsler, Patrick Sabongui, Josh McKenzie, and Sara Garcia.
