Encore kicks off the summer with the captivating two-part crime drama THORNE, premiering on Tuesday, June 12 and Wednesday, July 13 at 9PM ET/PT David Morrissey, Aiden Gillen, Sandra Oh, Natascha McElhone and Eddie Marsan star in the project.
'Thorne' is a two part ENCORE original event. 'Thorne: Sleepyhead' is a startling contemporary take on the thrilling, chilling, crime drama, adapted from Mark Billingham's bestselling novel 'Sleepyhead' (2001). Directed by Stephen Hopkins ('House of Lies,' '24') the series stars acclaimed actor David Morrissey ('The Walking Dead,' Centurion, State of Play) who plays the complex and compelling character Detective Inspector Tom Thorne. Morrissey is joined by cast members Natascha McElhone ('Californication'), Aidan Gillen ('The Wire') and Eddie Marsan (Sherlock Holmes). While investigating a series of unusual attacks on young women, Thorne finds himself dragged back into the nightmares of his past as he races against time to find a mysterious serial killer. His first three victims are found dead. The fourth victim, Alison Willetts, survived an excruciating attack and is unlucky to be alive. Thorne knows that there are more deaths to come, as the killer enjoys toying with Thorne just as much as he gets a thrill out of pursuing his sick fantasy.
