The first look at the Bad Boys spinoff, L.A’.s Finest, has been released and Gabrielle Union and Jessica Alba look like one hell of a team.
Charter Communications has also set the premiere date for its first Spectrum Originals series. The first three episodes of the cop drama will be made available for free to subscribers on Spectrum’s On Demand platform on Monday, May 13. The rest of the season will be released weekly each subsequent Monday for the remainder of the 13-episode run.
L.A.’s Finest sees Union reprising her role as Syd Burnett from 2003’s Bad Boys II. Now an LAPD detective, Syd is paired with a new partner, Nancy McKenna (Alba), a working mom with an equally complex past. Taking on the most dangerous criminals in Los Angeles while skirting the rules, and speed limits, Syd and Nancy become a force to be reckoned with – on the streets, and in each other’s lives. Zach Gilford, Duane Martin, Ryan McPartlin, Sophie Reynolds and Ernie Hudson also star.
The show, first developed as an NBC pilot, is the first foray into the scripted originals space for Charter. It is set to be followed by the U.K. street racing drama Curfew from Sky and the Lionsgate crime anthology series Manhunt, picked up from Discovery.
