Corus Entertainment’s Global announced Tuesday season one of the Irish/Canadian/Belgian crime drama Hidden Assets will debut Wednesday, June 5 at 9 p.m. ET on Global and Corus’s multi-channel streaming service StackTV.
“When evidence from a raid links a small-time drug dealer to a series of bombings in Belgium, Irish detective Emer Berry (Angeline Ball) heads to Antwerp, where she’s confronted by Christian de Jong (Wouter Hendrickx) of the anti-terrorism squad. Together, they begin to untangle an international conspiracy involving drugs, terrorism, and corrupt business and political leaders,” reads a synopsis in a Corus press release.
Written by Peter McKenna and Morna Regan, Hidden Assets is directed by Emmy-nominated Thaddeus O’Sullivan and Belgian director Kadir Balci. Co-funded by the European Union, the series is co-produced by Ireland’s Saffron Moon, Canada’s Facet4 Media and Belgium’s Potemkino for RTÉ, Super Channel and Acorn TV, and is distributed in Canada by TVA Group subsidiary Incendo.
