Disney+ has released a first look at the upcoming crime thriller, Furious – and it sounds like a must-watch for Killing Eve fans.
The eight-part Hulu Original series follows FBI agent Alice Black, who becomes obsessed with hunting down a calculating female serial killer. But as their lives become entwined, Alice realises the pair might have more in common than she first thought.

Intrigued? Here is everything we know so far.
What is Furious about?
Created by Elizabeth Meriwether (New Girl, The Dropout), Furious follows an FBI agent, Alice Black (Emmy Rossum) as she tracks down a "mysterious and calculating" female serial killer.
The synopsis continues: "Both walk their own paths toward justice, and as their lives start to intertwine, the line between right and wrong begins to blur."
© DisneyViewers can expect a "huge twist" at the end of the series, according to show creator Elizabeth Meriwether. "I genuinely want people to be on the edge of their seat," she told Entertainment Weekly. "I want people to be constantly surprised and uncomfortable in a fun, interesting way. I just want it to be a rip-roaring good time for people."
Meanwhile, leading star and executive producer Emmy Rossum added: "I think it's interesting to have a crime thriller where the two female superpowers in the dual lead roles are actually more similar than they are different."
Who stars in Furious?
The series stars Emmy Rossum (Shameless) and Lola Petticrew (Say Nothing) as FBI agent Alice Black and serial killer Catherine, respectively.
