Foxtel to air UK Series “A Town Called Malice” This May

A TOWN CALLED MALICE, a new eight-part drama created and written by Nick Love (Bulletproof, The Sweeney) and starring Jason Flemyng (Save Me, Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels) and Martha Plimpton (Mass, The Good Wife), premieres on Wednesday, May 3 on FOXTEL and will be available On Demand.

What is A Town Called Malice about

The Lords are a family of South London gangsters who, by the beginning of the 1980s, have reached the very bottom of the criminal food chain, and they are not happy about it. After losing a gang war, the Lords see the Costa del Sol in Spain as an opportunity to start over and reclaim their former glory. But they fight amongst themselves as much as they do with outsiders. Full of love, obsession, violence, deceit, and swagger, this high-octane neon Western is a musical love letter to the ’80s.

The Lord family is headed up by Jason Flemyng as Albert Lord, Jack Rowan (Born to Kill) as Gene Lord, Tahirah Sharif (The Haunting of Bly Manor) joins as Cindy Carter, Gene’s girlfriend, and Martha Plimpton as Mint Ma, who will be joined by wider family members Dougray Scott (Ever After, Mission: Impossible 2) as Uncle Tony, Lex Shrapnel (Captain America) as Leonard Lord, Daniel Sharman (Fear the Walking Dead, Medici) as Kelly Lord, George Jaques (The Third Day: Autumn) as Anthony Lord and Eliza Butterworth (The Last Kingdom) as Carly Lord.
