Black Bird

Jimmy Keene is offered a get-out-of-jail card if he can provide the FBI evidence against a serial killer. Larry Hall is poised to leave prison on appeal. Questions remain about his interrogation, and whether the things he said were true or false. Keene draws in the psychopath, delving deeper into a serial killer’s mind. But Hall’s habit of false confessions leaves it unclear whether there’s anything to learn before he’s released.

Taron Egerton and Paul Walter Hauser star in the Apple Original series “Black Bird.” Inspired by true events, Keene must survive a violent prison, dangerous inmates, and ruthless guards, all while trying to befriend Hall and expose his secrets.
