Xavier Samuel has joined the upcoming Amazon Prime Video cop thriller series “Bishop” in a series regular role, Variety has learned.

Samuel will appear alongside previously announced series lead Joel Kinnaman and fellow cast members John Malkovich, Jordana Brewster, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Harry Treadaway.

The official logline for the show states, “Homicide detective Bishop Graves (Kinnaman) – brilliant, battle-scarred – will put all of his skills to the test in the hunt for an elusive killer targeting San Francisco’s moneyed class. As this increasingly audacious killer develops a devoted following among the city’s powerless, Bishop becomes convinced these murders connect back to SF’s most powerful man, his own father, Lincoln Graves (Malkovich).”
