Steve Carell Joins Serial Killer Drama Series From Americans Creators

FX has announced a serial killer drama series from The Americans showrunners starring Steve Carell. Carell is widely considered one of the biggest names in comedy, considering his starring roles on The Office, 40-Year-Old Virgin, and more. But, as he demonstrated with his role in 2018’s Beautiful Boy, he’s taking another dive into a much darker production centered around the mind of a killer.

FX unveiled an upcoming limited series titled The Patient, created by Joel Fields and Joe Weisberg. Carell will play a psychiatrist, Alexander Strauss, who is captured by a serial killer and unable to escape. He works to help the man suppress his murderous impulses. Additionally, Strauss is grappling with the death of his wife, and he is forced to confront his trauma while in captivity.

Carell will also serve as an executive producer on The Patient alongside Caroline Moore and Victor Hsu. The series will feature 10 episodes running 30-minutes each. Co-writers, Fields and Weisberg, are best known for their spy drama, The Americans, which aired on FX and achieved four Emmy Awards. The announcement did not reveal an expected release date for the upcoming series.

The Americans ran on FX for six seasons. The series, set during the Cold War, follows two KGB spies who are undercover in the suburbs of Washington D.C. Considering the critical acclaim the duo’s last show received, The Patient has a lot to live up to, especially with a star like Carell at the helm.
