What’s This TV Show About?
A Hulu pre-apocalyptic crime drama, Hard Sun stars Jim Sturgess, Agyness Deyn, Nikki Amuka-Bird, Jojo Macari, Derek Riddell, Owain Arthur, Varada Sethu, Adrian Rawlins, Lorraine Burroughs, Aisling Bea, and Joplin Sibtain. Although DI Elaine Renko (Deyn) and DCI Charlie Hicks (Sturgess) are mismatched, these partners are out to enforce the laws and keep safe their loved ones, as encroaching natural disaster threatens to end the world. While investigating a murder in London’s inner city, the duo uncovers proof that the world will be destroyed in five years. Because the British government is desperate to keep that information secret, Security Service (i.e. MI5) operatives are out to silence Hicks and Renko — permanently.
Hard Sun has been cancelled so there won’t be a second season. Could it be revived someday? Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Unless they decide to publicize viewership, it is hard to predict if Hulu will cancel or renew Hard Sun for a first season, so let’s look what we do know. The series is a co-production between the BBC and Hulu. Seven Network in Australia and ZDF in Germany have already acquired the rights. Hard Sun comes from writer Neil Cross, who also created the popular Luther series. Cross has told Radio Times that he’s sketched out a five-season plan. Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be.
