Fans of Stephen King will be delighted with HBO’s new offering which is based on the writer’s novel of the same name. It looks into the gruesome murder of an 11-year-old boy and, like most of King’s books, the mysterious force surrounding the case.
Heading the investigation is police detective Ralph Anderson, who also just lost his son. Look out for Holly Gibney, the fan favourite character from King’s other book, Mr Mercedes.
This 10-episode miniseries stars Ben Mendelsohn and Cynthia Erivo.
The Outsider premieres today with two back-to-back episodes at 10am/10pm on HBO (Astro Ch 411)/HBO Go.
