black-snow-social-featured

Sundance Now and AMC+ plus released today the first trailer for Black Snow, an upcoming mystery series starring Travis Fimmel (Vikings, Raised by Wolves). In Black Snow, Fimmel plays the cold-case detective James Cormack, who’s in charge of solving the gruesome murder of a teenager.

James’ task is made more manageable once a time capsule Isabel helped to build in high school gets opened, revealing letters and other documents left behind by the girl. As the trailer tells us, the series will jump from present to past as James digs into the clues Isabel left behind. So, we’ll follow his investigation while also watching flashbacks that paint a vivid picture of how Isabel was targeted in a passionate crime. It’s an intriguing concept, and Fimmel is the perfect lead to carry over the series.

Black Snow debuts with a two-episode premiere on Thursday, February 23, on Sundance Now and AMC+. After that, new episodes of the series will roll out weekly on Thursdays. Check out the new trailer and the series’ synopsis below.

Part coming-of-age drama and part whodunit, Black Snow follows the mystery of a small-town murder that rocked the Australian South Sea Islander community. In 1994, seventeen-year-old Isabel Baker was murdered. The crime shocked her tight-knit community and left the town devastated. The case was never solved, the killer never found. In 2020, the opening of a time capsule unearths a secret that puts cold-case detective James Cormack (Fimmel) on the trail of the killer.
