Trailer for Gracepoint Starring David Tennant and Anna Gunn

Posted on May 15, 2014

Here is the trailer for the upcoming Fox series Gracepoint starring David Tennant. Tennant is best known as the tenth doctor on Dr. Who. He also plays the lead detective in the British version that this series is based on called Broadchurch.

The American remake is a ten episode series. It's set in a small California seaside town that is torn apart when a young boy is found dead on the beach. Tennant is the detective who is burnt out from another terrible case who must pull it together and find the murderer in a town that's filled with lots of secrets.

The British series aired on ITV and it was simply fantastic. In the original series, Tennant uses his actual, Scottish accent. In the American version, he pulls off an American accent with ease. That's not surprising; he's a brilliant actor, whether he's doing Shakespeare or playing a hilarious, over the top showman in the Colin Farrell movie Fright Night.

The producers have told us that the murderer will be a different person than in the British series, so nothing has been spoiled for those that have seen it. They also said there will be new characters, and more twists. The cast also includes Oscar winner Jacki Weaver (Silver Linings Playbook), Nick Nolte, Anna Gunn, Jack Irvine and Michael Pena.

We can't wait to see it. Take a look:
