In order to entice an actor of Timothy Dalton’s stature to the small screen, the role of Sir Malcolm Murray in Showtime’s “Penny Dreadful” must be quite juicy indeed. The network has just released a new promo video in which he and co-star Josh Hartnett discuss the character.
“Penny Dreadful” is created, written, and executive produced by three-time Oscar nominee John Logan (Hugo, The Aviator, Gladiator) and executive produced by Oscar winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Skyfall) and Neal Street’s Pippa Harris (Revolutionary Road, “Call the Midwife”).
Timothy Dalton, Reeve Carney, Josh Hartnett, Harry Treadaway, Rory Kinnear, Billie Piper, and Eva Green star. Juan Antonio Bayona (The Orphanage, The Impossible) directs the first two episodes.
“Penny Dreadful” is set to premiere on Showtime on Sunday, May 11th, at 10PM ET/PT.
