Butterfly is headed to Prime Video. The series was first announced in development in February and has now received a six-episode order.

Daniel Dae Kim (Lost, Hawaii Five-0) stars and executive produces the spy thriller series. The show is based on the 2015 graphic novel created by Arash Amel, written by Amel and Marguerite Bennett, and illustrated by Antonio Fuso and Stefano Simeone.

Ken Woodruff and novelist Steph Cha are the series’ co-creators and are also executive producers. Woodruff will serve as the showrunner.

Per Variety, Prime Video revealed the following about the plot of the series:

David Jung (Kim), an enigmatic, highly unpredictable former US intelligence operative living in South Korea, whose life is blown to pieces when the consequences of an impossible decision from his past come back to haunt him, and he finds himself pursued by Rebecca, a deadly, sociopathic young agent assigned to kill him.

Production on the series will begin after the writers strike ends.
