Cinemax has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming original drama series Jett starring Carla Gugino.
The nine-episode first season will premiere on Friday, June 14 at 10/9c.
Daisy "Jett" Kowalski (Gugino) is a world-class thief just out of prison and trying to stay on the straight and narrow. When powerful crime lord Charlie Baudelaire offers her the proverbial "last job" - a jewel heist in Cuba that will see her reunited with former flame and safecracker extraordinaire Quinn - Jett goes back to doing what she does best. Throughout the season, Jett deals with the fallout of this heist, finding herself buffeted from job to job through a series of unpredictable reversals, tethered to a cast of morally ambivalent and eccentric criminals - from budding femme fatales to compromised law enforcers to unscrupulous Russian mobsters - as she deftly navigates shifting loyalties, trying to figure out who double-crossed her and how to protect her daughter, Alice.
The drama also stars Giancarlo Esposito, Elena Anaya, Michael Aronov, Gaite Jansen, Chris Backus, Gil Bellows, Violet McGraw and Mustafa Shakir.
Sebastian Gutierrez created the drama and also directs. He executive produces with Gugino, Mark Stern, Stuart Ford and Dana Brunetti. Stacey Levin is a co-executive producer. Global Road Entertainment produces.
