Anthony Mackie-Jamie Dornan Heist Drama Lands at Apple

Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan are going on a wild ride with Apple.

The tech giant and streamer has landed 12 12 12, a scripted thriller described as a “contemporary international heist” series. The streamer is nearing a formal series greenlight for the project that will reunite stars Mackie and Dornan after the 2019 feature Synchronic.  

12 12 12 takes place over three timelines in a heist — the 12 months of planning to raid a bank vault beneath the streets of Zurich, the 12 hours of the actual heist and the 12 days after it. The drama revolves around an FBI agent (Mackie) and a career criminal (Dornan), who play a cat-and-mouse game across Europe.

Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble (Silent Witness, Wild Bill) created and wrote the series. The duo will exec produce alongside Kari Skogland (Falcon and the Winter Soldier), who will direct the pilot.

The series is a co-production between Anonymous Content and Skydance Television. Mackie, Dornan and Jason Spire will exec produce. Skydance TV’s David Ellison, Dana Goldberg and Matt Thunell will oversee for Skydance and Anonymous.

12 12 12 marks Apple’s latest TV collaboration with Skydance, following Foundation, The Big Door Prize, an upcoming comedy starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson and sci-fi drama Neuromancer.

Mackie is known for his work in the Marvel universe and previously teamed with Skogland in the Disney+ series Falcon and the Winter Soldier. He also stars in the Peacock scripted drama Twisted Metal. Dornan, for his part, counts The Tourist and Belfast among his credits.
