Rian Johnson is back with another mystery to sink your teeth into.
The trailer for the Knives Out mastermind's new Peacock series Poker Face sees Natasha Lyonne lead a star-studded cast as she tries to figure out the "why" of it all with a new mystery in every episode.
"You've got this gift," Adrien Brody's character tells her. "Of always knowing the truth."
"I only know if something is a lie," she responds. "The real trick of it is to figure out, 'why?'"
Lyonne stars as Charlie Cale, a woman with an uncanny ability to tell if someone is lying. The 10-part mystery-of-the-week series will follow Charlie as she hops in her Plymouth Barricuda and meets a quirky cast of characters at each of her stops. Poker Face features an A-List ensemble including Brody, Benjamin Bratt, Cherry Jones, Chloë Sevigny, Clea DuVall, Danielle MacDonald, Dascha Polanco, Ellen Barkin, Hong Chau, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Luis Guzmán, Tim Blake Nelson, Tim Meadows, and a ton more.
Poker Face premieres on Peacock on January 26 with four episodes, followed by a new episode every Thursday.
