The series from Wild Mercury and Capricorn Productions stars Martin Compston and Anjli Mohindra

Fear will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in the UK and Ireland on 4 March 2025

LONDON, UK - 10 February 2025 - Prime Video today released the official trailer, key art, and new images for the exciting three-part psychological thriller series, Fear, about a family pushed to their absolute limits. The new original series will premiere all episodes exclusively on Prime Video in the UK and Ireland on 4th March 2025.

Martin Compston (The Rig, Line of Duty) leads the cast, alongside Anjli Mohindra (Vigil, The Lazarus Project), Solly McLeod (Tom Jones, The Dead Don't Hurt), BAFTA-winning James Cosmo (Jack Ryan, Game of Thrones), Maureen Beattie (Deadwater Fell, Our House), Daniel Portman (Black Mirror, Game of Thrones), Anneika Rose (Crossfire, Line of Duty) and Bhav Joshi (Breathtaking, The Diplomat).

Excited to make a fresh start away from London, Martyn (Martin Compston) and Rebecca (Anjli Mohindra) move into a beautiful house in Glasgow with their two young children. At first the new home seems idyllic, but when their neighbour Jan (Solly McLeod) makes unnerving comments to Rebecca it turns out to be the start of something far more intimidating. Facing accusations that are every parent's worst nightmare, and with the authorities refusing to step in, Martyn and Rebecca feel they have nowhere to turn to for help.

The production of Fear has been supported by Screen Scotland through its Broadcast Content Fund, and was filmed entirely in Glasgow. The series will premiere at the Glasgow Film Festival, and will include a screening and panel with select cast and crew. Tickets to the event are available here.
