Liev Schreiber is on the hunt in trailer for Nordic noir adaptation ‘Nocturne’

Liev Schreiber warns Zazie Beetz about getting too close in their investigation of a locked-up killer played by Stephen Graham in a trailer for “Nocturne” released Tuesday by Apple TV. 

Schreiber plays Jonah Lynn, a veteran-turned-detective whose small Pennsylvania town comes under threat from serial killer Jurek Walter (Graham). Though he’s in jail, his last remaining victim remains missing, forcing Jonah to bring his surrogate daughter, FBI Agent Saga Bauer (Beetz), to help in the search.
