Prime Video Releases Key Art, Trailer, and More for ‘The Outlaws’

Written by John Edward Betancourt

It really is quite the wonderful time to be a hardcore fan of television. Because the demand for shows is at an all-time high, and the networks are responding by giving us every type of story we could ask for and they’re giving us every possible way imaginable to see them, and the best part of all, there are no boundaries as to what we can discover storytelling wise.

For quality shows that would normally miss the North American market, now find their way to us via the endless viewing options we have, and it just so happens that another unique and captivating show from across the pond is about to make its Western debut. For earlier today, Prime Video announced the release date for The Outlaws, along with a brief synopsis of the series and some key art and a trailer to build a little buzz for this dynamic series, and well, without further ado… here are all the details and all those goodies for you to enjoy, courtesy of Prime Video.

'Today, Prime Video released the official trailer and key art for the first season of The Outlaws, from award-winning writer and director Stephen Merchant (The Office) and Elgin James (Mayans M.C., Lowriders). All six episodes of the Amazon Original series will premiere on Prime Video on Friday, April 1 in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Nordic countries, following an incredibly successful series premiere on BBC One and BBC iPlayer in the UK.
 
The Outlaws is a comedy thriller about a disparate group of lawbreakers thrown together to complete a community service sentence. Seven strangers from different walks of life are forced to work together to renovate a derelict community center. When one of their number gets dragged into a dangerous world of organized crime, they unite in ways none of them thought possible. The series stars Rhianne Barreto (Hanna, Dixi) as Rani, Gamba Cole (Hanna, Guerrilla) as Christian, Stephen Merchant as Greg, Christopher Walken (Severance, The Deer Hunter) as Frank, Eleanor Tomlinson (Poldark, The Nevers) as Lady Gabriela, Darren Boyd (Trying, Fortitude) as John, Clare Perkins (The Wheel of Time, Suspicion) as Myrna, and Jessica Gunning (Back, Fortitude) as Diane.
 
The Outlaws is a Big Talk and Four Eyes production co-created by Stephen Merchant—who also serves as an executive producer, director, and writer—and Elgin James. Luke Alkin, Kenton Allen, and Matthew Justice also serve as executive producers for Big Talk. The Outlaws is co-produced by BBC One and Amazon Studios. Global distribution is handled by BBC Studios. The pickup of the show's second season was announced in November.'
