Silent River is coming soon to Prime Video. The new thriller will star and be executive produced by John Krasinski (Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan) and Matthew Rhys (The Americans).

The thriller follows two men in small-town America who realize they are more connected than they realize and that a serial killer lives among them. Krasinski will direct the pilot and additional episodes of the series.

The project comes from Krasinski and Allyson Seeger’s Sunday Night. The company’s first-look deal with Amazon MGM Studios has been extended. Executive producer Aaron Rabin created the series. Andrew Bernstein (director of season two of Jack Ryan, as well as the upcoming feature film) will direct and also executive produce on the series.

According to Deadline, Vernon Sanders, head of television, Amazon MGM Studios, said the following about Silent River:

“We are thrilled to continue our work with John Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, and Sunday Night on this gripping series, which delves into the mysteries and secrets of small-town America. With John and Matthew Rhys attached to star in this wonderful story from Aaron Rabin, our global customers will be on the edge of their seats throughout this thought-provoking, psychological thriller.”

The premiere date for Silent River will be announced later.
