GRACEPOINT follows the tragic death of a young boy, and the
major police investigation and nationwide media frenzy that subsequently
overtake a picturesque seaside town, where anyone is a suspect.
When a young boy is found dead on an idyllic beach, a major
police investigation gets underway in the small California seaside town where
the tragedy occurred. Soon deemed a homicide, the case sparks a media frenzy,
which throws the boy's family into further turmoil and upends the lives of all
of the town's residents. Welcome to GRACEPOINT, a new 10-episode mystery event
series based on "Broadchurch," the U.K.'s critically acclaimed hit
crime drama. GRACEPOINT is an expansion of the original series, introducing new
characters, identifying new suspects and threading new storylines through the
gripping narrative. Leading the investigation is Detective EMMETT CARVER (David
Tennant, "Broadchurch," "Dr. Who"), who has just arrived in
Gracepoint to fill a high position in the town's police force. That job
previously had been promised to Detective ELLIE MILLER (Emmy Award winner Anna
Gunn, "Breaking Bad"), who, in light of the tragedy, must put any
resentment aside and work the case with her prickly new boss. Det. Miller must
break the news to her doting husband, JOE (Josh Hamilton, "American Horror
Story") and her son, TOM (newcomer Jack Irvine), who was the best friend
of the murder victim, DANNY SOLANO (Nikolas Filipovic, "Falling
Skies"). Danny is survived by his grieving parents, MARK (Michael Peña,
"End of Watch") and BETH SOLANO (Virginia Kull, "Boardwalk
Empire"), and his rebellious older sister, CHLOE (newcomer Madalyn
Horcher), who has an older boyfriend, DEAN IVERSON (Kendrick Sampson, "The
Vampire Diaries"), unbeknownst to her parents. All of Gracepoint is pulled
into the investigation, including JACK REINHOLD (Emmy Award nominee and Golden
Globe Award winner Nick Nolte, "Luck"), a private man who runs the
kayak rental service on the beach, as well as the local wildlife observation
program, for which Danny volunteered. SUSAN WRIGHT (Academy Award and Golden
Globe Award nominee Jacki Weaver, "Silver Linings Playbook"), a
mysterious woman, lives in the RV park near the coast, with her dog. The town's
minister, PAUL COATES (Kevin Rankin, "Justified"), becomes the de
facto spokesperson for the community as the media descends on Gracepoint.
Danny's death also impacts tourism, with the decline in visitors felt most
harshly by hotel owner GEMMA FISHER (Sarah-Jane Potts, "Kinky
Boots,"), a vivacious Brit with secrets of her own. Also touched by
Danny's death is Mark's apprentice at his plumbing company, VINCE NOVIK
(Stephen Louis Grush, "Lucky 7"). The investigation is followed
closely by the town's local newspaper reporter, OWEN BURKE (Kevin Zegers,
"Transamerica"), who is Det. Miller's nephew. Owen's ambition is
fueled by San Francisco Globe reporter RENEE CLEMONS (Jessica Lucas,
"Cloverfield"), who has a history with Detective Carver and sets up
camp in Gracepoint to cover the case. The riveting crime series carves a
powerfully dark wake through the town of Gracepoint with a startling
conclusion, as the detectives piece together what happened on the night of
Danny's death. Produced by Shine America in association with Kudos and
Imaginary Friends, GRACEPOINT is executive-produced by Anya Epstein ("In
Treatment," "Homicide"); Dan Futterman ("Capote,"
"In Treatment"); the original series' creator, Chris Chibnall
("Dr. Who," "Camelot"); Kudos' Jane Featherstone ("The
Hour," "Utopia"), John Goldwyn ("Dexter"); and Shine
America's Carolyn Bernstein ("The Bridge"). Futterman and Epstein
serve as showrunners. Chibnall wrote the premiere episode, and James Strong
("Broadchurch," "Downton Abbey") directed.
