MOVIE NEWS – The two-time Oscar-nominated director and executive producer returns to the screen with a series full of mysteries.

SkyShowtime has announced the September launch of Poker Face, a new series directed by Rian Johnson (Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Knives Out) and starring and executive produced by Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll, Orange Is the New Black). The series is a 10-episode crime drama with a new mystery every week, in which Lyonne plays a private detective sensitive to lies.

He sets off in his Plymouth Barracuda, meeting new characters and strange crimes to solve at each stop.

The series received overwhelmingly positive reviews and almost immediately received the best “Fresh” rating on Rotten Tomatoes with a score of 98%.

Poker Face guest stars include Adrien Brody, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rhea Perlman and many more.
