The eight-part Irish crime drama Kin<\/em>, produced by BRON Studios (Joker<\/em>) and Headline Pictures (The Man in the High Castle<\/em>), has been acquired for BBC One and BBC iPlayer.<\/p>\n

The series follows as the Kinsellas, a local crime family, embark on a gangland war with a powerful international cartel. Though they are outnumbered, outfinanced and outgunned, they have something the cartel does not: the unbreakable bond of blood.<\/p>\n

The cast features Clare Dunne (Herself<\/em>), Charlie Cox (Daredevil<\/em>), Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones<\/em>), Ciar\u00e1n Hinds (Game of Thrones<\/em>), Sam Keeley (The Cured<\/em>), Emmett J. Scanlan (Peaky Blinders<\/em>), Maria Doyle Kennedy (Outlander<\/em>) and newcomer Yasmin Seky.<\/p>\n

Kin<\/em> was acquired by the BBC from FIFTH SEASON (Killing Eve<\/em>, Severance<\/em>, Tokyo Vice<\/em>). It is written and created by Peter McKenna (The Last Kingdom<\/em>, Red Rock<\/em>), who also serves as showrunner and executive producer. Other executive producers are BRON Studios\u2019 David Davoli (The Defeated<\/em>, Bag of Bones<\/em>), Samantha Thomas (Jessica Jones<\/em>, Daredevil<\/em>), Steven Thibault (Pieces of a Woman<\/em>, Capone<\/em>) and Aaron L. Gilbert (Bombshell<\/em>, Joker<\/em>, Fences<\/em>); Headline Pictures\u2019 Christian Baute (Man in the High Castle<\/em>, Funny Games<\/em>), Laurence Lenica and Frank Calderon; and Ciaran Donnelly (Altered Carbon<\/em>, Vikings<\/em>), who is also co-creator.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnchored by a tremendous cast, Kin<\/em> is a powerful and intense story of love, grief, family and crime and its devastating ramifications,\u201d said Sue Deeks, head of BBC program acquisition.<\/p>\n

Jennifer Ebell, executive VP of EMEA sales and acquisitions at FIFTH SEASON, added, \u201cKin<\/em> aired in Ireland to critical acclaim and has generated record-breaking ratings across both linear and on-demand. The series has clocked up more than 4 million lifetime streams in Ireland, with the second season averaging a 40 percent audience share in its Sunday night slot and its finale becoming the most-viewed program of the year outside of sport. We\u2019re thrilled that Kin has found its U.K. home with the BBC.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
