The Twelve is an Australian courtroom drama that will begin airing on ITV1 soon which stars Sam Neill.
Neill is known for playing Dr. Alan Grant in the Jurassic Park films as well as Major Chester Campbell in Peaky Blinders and Cardinal Thomas Wolsey in The Tudors.
Based on the 2019 Belgian miniseries De twaalf it follows twelve jurors who must decide the fate of Kate, a woman who stands accused of murdering her teenage niece.
As reported by the Radio Times, the synopsis states: "Behind the façade of their anonymity, these 12 ordinary people bring with them their own histories. Lives that are as complex as the trial, full of fractured dreams, shameful secrets, hope, fears, personal trauma, and prejudice.
"Through the multiple lenses of these jurors, audiences will see the fragility and imbalances of the law, and the chaotic and flawed way we attempt to determine justice in our society."
The Twelve originally debuted on ITV in February 2023 but will now air weekly on ITV1 for those who like to watch that way.
