Apple TV+ has announced the release date for their new conspiracy thriller series, Prime Target, starring Leo Woodall (The White Lotus, One Day) and Quintessa Swindell (Black Adam, In Treatment). The series will debut on the streamer with a two-episode premiere on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, with new episodes dropping weekly on Wednesday through March 5, 2025.
In addition to revealing when audiences can tune into the eight-episode series, the announcement was paired with three new images of Prime Target‘s leads. The plotline was previously revealed when the series was announced back in February, and is as follows:
Prime Target features a brilliant young math postgraduate, Edward Brooks (Woodall), on the verge of a major breakthrough. If he succeeds in finding a pattern in prime numbers, he will hold the key to every computer in the world. Soon he begins to realize an unseen enemy is trying to destroy his idea before it’s even born, which throws him into the orbit of Taylah Sanders, a female NSA agent (Swindell) who’s been tasked with watching and reporting on mathematicians’ behavior. Together they start to unravel the troubling conspiracy Edward is at the heart of.
