Emily Blunt is out for revenge in The English.
The trailer for the Amazon Prime Video Western series stars Blunt as Lady Cornelia Locke, an aristocratic Englishwoman who finds herself on a quest for revenge after her child is killed. She soon teams up with Eli Whipp (Chaske Spencer), a Pawnee ex-calvary scout with his own vengeful agenda, and the unlikely duo embark on a journey across the violent, bloody landscape that is 1890 middle America.
When an investigation of "a series of bizarre and macabre unsolved murders" reveals Cornelia and Eli's intertwined history, per Amazon's synopsis, the two "come face-to-face with the future they must live."
"I'll tell you a story," says Blunt's Cornelia. "Mine's about revenge. Can't help but think yours is, too."
In addition to Blunt and Spencer, the cast of The English includes Stephen Rea, Valerie Pachner, Rafe Spall, Tom Hughes, Toby Jones, and Ciarán Hinds. Created by Hugo Black (The Honourable Woman), the epic Western drama series spans six episodes.
The English premieres on Amazon Prime Video November 11.
