The trailer offers a glimpse into the story in which the mysterious genius Iris Nixon (Niamh Algar) cracks a series of complex online puzzles that lead her to a piazza in Florence.

There, she meets the charismatic entrepreneur Cameron Beck (Tom Hollander), who asks her to help unlock a highly secretive technological device. Curious, Iris accepts the offer, but once she discovers how dangerous the device is, she steals the logbook with the activation code and disappears without a trace.

What follows is a relentless chase, from a remote cabin in Sardinia to the bustling streets of Rome, with Cameron determined to find Iris. In this race, everything is at stake: no one can be trusted, and every mistake could be fatal.

The cast includes Niamh Algar (Mary & George), Tom Hollander (The White Lotus), and Kristofer Hivju (Game of Thrones).

The Iris Affair is a sun-drenched chase thriller from creator, writer, and showrunner Neil Cross (Luther), directed by Terry McDonough (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) and Sarah O’Gorman (A Gentleman in Moscow, The Witcher).

The series will be exclusively available to stream on SkyShowtime later this year. Check out more photos and the trailer below.
