CINEMAX LIMITED DRAMA SERIES RELLIK DEBUTS APRIL 13

What are the experiences that forge the people we become?

RELLIK, a six-part limited series told in reverse, debuts FRIDAY, APRIL 13 (10:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT), exclusively on CINEMAX. Richard Dormer (HBO’s “Game of Thrones”) stars as Gabriel Markham, a relentless U.K. police detective bent on tracking down the serial killer who left him physically and emotionally scarred after an acid attack.

Unlike most murder mysteries, RELLIK turns the familiar serial murderer story on its head and begins with the apprehension and death of the presumed killer. Over six hour-long episodes, Gabriel and his team’s pursuit of the suspected murderer reveals the causes of the characters’ actions, as well as the events that push them to the brink.

RELLIK also stars Jodi Balfour (CINEMAX’s “Quarry”; “The Crown”) as Elaine, newly transferred to the team, who shares a special relationship with Gabriel. In addition, the show features: Patterson Joseph (HBO’s “The Leftovers”) as Isaac, a suspicious psychiatrist who may be hiding darker depths to his own psyche; Ray Stevenson (HBO’s “Rome”) as Benton, a bullish police chief with his own secrets; and Paul Rhys (“Victoria”) as Patrick, a two-faced businessman with a deeply troubling family life.
