George Kay, who co-created Netflix’s hit French drama Lupin, will write the four-part Litvinenko. "Litvinenko was a former Russian Federal Security Services and KGB officer whose death in London from polonium poisoning triggered one of the most complex and dangerous investigations in the history of London’s Metropolitan Police," per The Hollywood Reporter. "The drama will tell the story of the determined Scotland Yard officers who worked for 10 years to prove who was responsible, having been told by Litvinenko from his hospital bed that he was poisoned on the direct orders of Vladimir Putin."
