A podcaster, his assistant, and a journalist travel to Ireland to investigate a cold case in Netflix’s Bodkin. Described as a dark comedic thriller, the trailer reveals that the Irish townsfolk aren’t thrilled about being invaded by a podcast team and definitely aren’t ready to disclose all their secrets to strangers who are determined to dredge up unwelcome memories.
Will Forte stars as Gilbert Power, the podcaster; Robyn Cara plays Gilbert’s assistant, Emmy Sizerghy; and Siobhán Cullen stars as Dove, the investigative journalist who reluctantly joins forces with Gilbert. The cast also includes Chris Walley as Sean O’Shea and David Wilmot as Seamus. Pom Boyd, Fionnula Flanagan, Áine Ní Mhuirí, Charlie Kemp, Pat Shortt, Ger Kelly, Denis Conway, and John Olohan guest star.
Bodkin follows “a motley crew of podcasters who set out to investigate the mysterious disappearance of three strangers in a quaint, coastal Irish town. But once they start pulling at threads, they discover a story much bigger and weirder than they could have ever imagined,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “As our heroes try to discern fact from fiction — about the case, about their colleagues, and, most painfully, themselves — the series challenges our perception of truth and exposes the stories we tell ourselves to justify our beliefs or validate our fears.”
Jez Scharf created the series and serves as co-showrunner alongside Alex Metcalf. Scharf, Metcalf, David Flynn, Paul Lee, Nne Ebong, Tonia Davis, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Tonia Davis, and Nash Edgerton executive produce.
Nash Edgerton, Bronwen Hughes, Johnny Allan, and Paddy Breathnach direct, with Scharf, Metcalf, Ursula Rani Sarma, Megan Mostyn-Brown, Oneika Barrett, Mike O’Leary, and Paddy Campbell writing.
The seven-episode season premieres on May 9, 2024.
