‘Black Rabbit’: First Images Sees Jude Law, Jason Bateman Play Brothers in Netflix’s New Crime Drama Mini Series!! Check It Out!!

Jude Law and Jason Bateman are brothers in big trouble in the first look at Black Rabbit. The duo will play brothers who get wrapped up in the seamy side of New York City’s clubland in the new drama. It was created by Zach Baylin (King Richard) and Kate Susman (The Order). The series will premiere on Netflix on September 18, 2025.

In the new images, Law plays Jake Friedken, the owner of Black Rabbit, the successful restaurant and VIP lounge of the title. It’s on the verge of becoming the hottest spot in New York when his long-estranged brother, Vince (Bateman) comes back to town, bringing trouble with him. The images show off a grimy side of New York, as well as the contracting looks of the brothers: Law is neat and composed, while Batman is uncharacteristically long-haired and bearded. The series also stars Cleopatra Coleman (Infinity Pool), Amaka Okafor (Bodies), Sope Dirisu (Gangs of London), Troy Kotsur (CODA), Abbey Lee (Lovecraft Country), Chris Coy (The Deuce), Dagmara Dominczyk (Succession), Odessa Young (The Staircase), and Robin De Jesus (tick, tick… BOOM!).
