Melissa Roxburgh leads NBC's new crime drama 'The Hunting Party' as a former FBI profiler who is drawn back into the world of investigations when a top-secret prison explodes, releasing a killer she once put behind bars.
Melissa Roxburgh takes center stage in NBC 's gripping new procedural, The Hunting Party, portraying former FBI profiler Rebecca 'Bex' Henderson. Bex, who left the bureau after a pivotal case with Oliver Odell (Nick Wechsler), finds herself back in the thick of investigations when a top-secret prison known as 'The Pit' explodes. Her connection to one of the escaped killers, Richard Harris, whom she apprehended years ago, compels her to step back into the world of crime-solving.
The premiere episode, which aired on Sunday, January 19, and will re-air on February 3, sees Bex working as a casino security guard before being thrust into the heart of the investigation. Bex had previously put Harris behind bars, believing he would be executed. However, he was instead transferred to 'The Pit,' which has now been decimated by the explosion. Roxburgh's casting as the lead in this crime drama is a stroke of genius. Her previous experience in the supernatural series Manifest, where she portrayed Michaela 'Mick' Stone, showcases her ability to command attention and deliver powerful performances. The showrunners, JJ Bailey and Coburn, echoed this sentiment, praising Roxburgh's strength, intelligence, and emotional depth. They noted that she effortlessly brings viewers into the story and possesses an undeniable screen presence. Roxburgh's talent extends beyond acting, as she's described as a collaborative and dedicated individual who sets high standards for herself and inspires those around her
