UK Original Series The Assassin will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in the UK and Ireland

Prime Video releases first look images showing Keeley Hawes (Scoop, Miss Austen) and Freddie Highmore (The Good Doctor, Bates Motel) in writing duo Harry and Jack Williams' latest action-packed, UK Original drama series, The Assassin.

Keeley Hawes said: "I feel so lucky to have spent the summer in Athens with the wonderful Freddie Highmore and surrounded by a cast and crew of such high calibre. Bringing Jack and Harry's spectacular scripts to life was an absolute joy - going to work has never been so much fun. I hope everyone enjoys The Assassin as much as we did"

Freddie Highmore said: "It doesn't get better than a Greek adventure alongside the lovely and incomparable Keeley Hawes! I'm really excited for people to glimpse some of what we've been up to. It was a joy to collaborate with such a brilliant cast and crew, and I feel very lucky that Harry and Jack Williams entrusted us with their characteristically thrilling writing... Other than that, all I can say is that it's going to be quite some six episodes!"
