Natasha Lyonne + Glass Onion x Columbo = 'Poker Face.' Peacock's new series starts tomorrow, and we can't wait! For more, read our review, below.
“The mystery genre has been done,” “The detective trope is tired,” “We’ve seen every twist a million times before.” If you listen to any TV critics lately, they're likely to spout opinions like this.ADVERTISEMENT The creative mind behind smash hit films Knives Out and Glass Onion is making his TV debut with Poker Face, starring and executive produced by Natasha Lyonne .
Johnson has done something different with this story than we’ve seen from him before. Poker Face is nothing like Knives Out or Glass Onion–there’s no campy flair, extravagant costuming, or luxurious setting. Instead, it’s a more grounded version of the typical detective-led mystery and follows a pretty regular woman doing pretty regular blue collar jobs.
Emmy-nominated and universally loved, Lyonne is no stranger to success, and Poker Face is yet another reminder why. If she weren’t already the main character, she would surely steal the show. The actress seems to bring a lot of herself in the characters she portrays, but it feels especially so with Charlie Cale. There’s a sincere goodness to Cale that is inherent in Lyonne’s personality as well, and we should know, she’s graced our cover twice.
