The Player
« on: Aug 01, 2015 at 11:10 PM »


The Player is an action-packed Las Vegas thriller about a former military operative turned security expert who is drawn into a high-stakes game where an organization of wealthy individuals gamble on his ability to stop some of the biggest crimes imaginable from playing out. Can he take them down from the inside and get revenge for the death of his wife, or is it true what they say: the House always wins.

Cast includes Wesley Snipes, Philip Winchester, Charity Wakefield

Network: NBC
Premiere date: September 24, 2015

Trailer:

...this could almost be the sequel to Strike Back, as Winchester's character was last seen on a road trip heading for Las Vegas during the last scene of the series finale, heh.

Is Snipes now legally cleared to work in the US...or will they substitute Cape Town for Vegas?

Are you referring to his income tax conviction? He served a three-year jail term and was released from prison in 2013; this is his first major role after his jail stint and he's also been in talks with Marvel for a possible Blade resurrection (rights to Blade reverted back to Marvel from New Line Cinema).

So Sullivan Stapleton is also in another NBC series Blindspot. I hope both he and Winchester do well.
