Y’Lan Noel plays an expert criminal and Matthew Law is a top notch police detective in the first look images for Courtney A. Kemp’s crime drama Nemesis for Netlix that dropped on Wednesday. The drama launches globally on the streaming platform on May 14, 2026.
Abbot Elementary actor Law plays Isaih Stiles and Noel is Coltrane Wilder in the heist series from Power creator Kemp. “What starts as a series that aims to subvert the heist genre at every turn, amped with thrilling life-or-death stakes, family dynamics and explosive action, actually gives birth to an exploration of what drives us, sustains us, and ultimately destroys us,” a synopsis from the producers of the series reads.

The 8-parter also stars Cleopatra Coleman, Tre Hale, Domenick Lombardozzi, Jonnie Park, Ariana Guerra, Gabrielle Dennis, Michael Potts, Sophina Brown, Cedric Joe and Jeff Pierre.
“Viewers are in for a ride with Nemesis, Courtney and Tani’s bold take on the crime drama genre. Courtney’s shows have proven to dominate [the] culture and conversation, and it’s exciting to have this be the first project from our creative partnership,” Nne Ebong, vp of studio scripted series at Netflix, said in earlier Tudum blog story for the streaming platform.
Guest stars include Moe Irvin, Quincy Isaiah, Jay Reeves, Mike O’Malley, Stephanie Sigman, Khalilah Joi, Shane Johnson, Siua Ikale’o, Dawnn Lewis and Mark Feuerstein. Kemp is the series creator, showrunner and executive producer, while Tani Marole is a co-creator and executive producer.
