The six-episode series stars and is executive produced by Emmy® and SAG® Award-nominee and Critics Choice® Award-winner Giancarlo Esposito.
Esposito stars as Gracian “Gray” Parish, a family man and proud owner of a luxury car service in New Orleans. After his son is violently murdered and his business collapses, an encounter with an old friend from his days as a wheelman resurfaces old habits, sending Gray on a high-stakes collision course with a violent criminal syndicate.
Shot on-location in New Orleans, Parish features a prominent ensemble cast of Zachary Momoh as New Orleans-based Zimbabwean gangster The Horse; SAG® Award-nominee Paula Malcomson as Parish’s wife and mother to his two children, Rose; Skeet Ulrich as an old acquaintance to Gray, Colin.
The series also features Bonnie Mbuili as Shamiso Tongai, The Horse’s smart and protective older sister; Ivan Mbakop as The Horse’s brother, Zenzo; Arica Himmel as Gray and Rose’s daughter Makayla; and Dax Rey as The Horse’s son Luke.
Bradley Whitford recurs as Anton, the charming and intelligent face of industrial business in Louisiana who covertly heads a criminal organization. His dispute with The Horse’s human trafficking ring puts him at direct odds with Parish. SAG® Award-nominee Amanda Brugel guest stars as Sister Anne, who has a mysterious past with Gray.
The series is based on the hit U.K. series The Driver, created by Danny Brocklehurst and Jim Poyser. It’s produced by AMC Studios, in association with A+E Studios and Thruline Entertainment.
