As the old saying goes, "Love and marriage go together like a horse and carriage." Squeezing in a life of espionage might make married life a bit more difficult, especially if you ask "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."
Prime Video just released the first trailer for its newest blockbuster series set to debut on February 2, 2024. Starring Donald Glover ("Atlanta," "Solo: A Star Wars Story") and Maya Erskine ("PEN15"), the slick new show promises intense action and touches of deception as its titular couple tries to balance their dangerous work and mysterious married life. If that sounds like your type of must-see TV (it certainly is for us!), we've got all the info on how to watch "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and more on Prime Video.
What is 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' about?
Though you might've seen "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" back in 2005 with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in the title roles, things are a bit different this time around. We still have John (Glover) and Jane (Erskine) posing as a married couple to hide their work lives as globe-trotters with deadly skills. Whereas the movie had John and Jane fall in love first and then discover their killer workloads, the new duo are sharp-dressed spies working for a mysterious agency that forces them into a marriage as part of their cover. So what comes first: their mission or their marriage?
The series was co-created by Glover and Francesca Sloane, who has also written episodes of Glover's "Atlanta" along with FX's "Fargo" series. Though originally set to star Glover and Phoebe Waller-Bridge ("Fleabag"), the latter Emmy winner exited the project in 2021 over creative differences. Erskine took over Waller-Bridge's role last year after the completion of her hit Hulu series "PEN15." The series will also feature Paul Dano ("The Batman"), Parker Posey ("Josey and the Pussycats"), John Turturro ("The Big Lebowski") and Ron Perlman ("Hellboy").
When does 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' come out?
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" debuts on Prime Video on February 2, 2024. The series will have an eight-episode run.
Where will 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' be streaming?
"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" will be streaming exclusively on Prime Video. You can watch the new show and plenty more by signing up for Prime Video at just $8.99 per month.
