I mean historically Skarsgard/Fanning pairings lead to award nominations, so why not?

It's fun that the Fanning sisters will be able to swap Skarsgard stories. Now I want them to work with Bill and/or Alexander.

I’m glad you made this comment because my mind skipped the word “Dakota” in the title & autofilled “Elle”. I’m down for a family swap type of situation where all of the Skarsgaards & Fannings take turns working with each other in various pairings.

Don't blame you, Dakota wasnt really doing anything major for like a decade where Elle was becoming a major actress. Now that she's back I always have to double check which Fanning is cast.

The premise for this sounds so insufferable. I hope there's more to it than it seems on the surface. "Serious professional loses her professionalism to fawn over unreasonably attractive billionaire with a heart of gold as they team up to take down the other EVIL billionaires!" No amount of acting can save that premise if that's all there is to it.

Skarskård's character is just condemned to use the tools of his enemies to defeat them and burn his decency for someone else's future.

That's your reading of the synopsis. To me it feels more like a gender-switched noir trope where the protagonist thinks the hot femme fatale he's supposed to be suspicious of is actually innocent (she's not).

I could make almost any show sound terrible based on how I described the premise. Wait til there's more, Stellan hasn't been in much bad.

Stellan was in Thor: The Dark World. Trust me when I say he single-handedly can make a bad project watchable.

\>Fanning stars as an undercover Treasury agent in a multibillion-dollar international conglomerate, with world-changing political and criminal tentacles, But not with China, China can't be evil in an Apple tv series. All hail China
