Far from taking a break from action genre following the fourth and final season of the Cinemax series, Strike Back, actor Phillip Winchester makes his foray into NBC dealing in an inner-circle of intrigue, betrayal, vengeance. Such is the case for the upcoming Fall premiere of the new series, The Player, with Damon Gupta, Charity Wakefield, and action star, actor Wesley Snipes rounding out the main cast.
From the executive producers of “The Blacklist” and starring Wesley Snipes and Philip Winchester (“Strike Back,” “Fringe”) comes an action-packed Las Vegas thriller about a former military operative turned security expert who is drawn into a high-stakes game where an organization of wealthy individuals gamble on his ability to stop some of the biggest crimes imaginable from playing out. Can he take them down from the inside and get revenge for the death of his wife, or is it true what they say: the House always wins.
