Stan has released the trailer for the brand new crime thriller series The Undeclared War, which is set to premiere this July, same day as the U.K. – with all six episodes available at once.

Set in a post-pandemic 2024 in the run up to a British general election, The Undeclared War tracks a leading team of analysts buried in the heart of GCHQ, secretly working to ward off a series of cyber-attacks, among other threats to the UK’s national security.

When a routine stress test of internet infrastructure goes awry, 21-year-old GCHQ intern Saara Parvan (Hannah Khalique-Brown) suddenly finds herself operating on the invisible frontier of high-stakes cyber warfare. The series is a result of meticulous research by creator Peter Kosminsky, lifting the veil on the most urgent battle of our time.

The series is led by Academy award-winner Mark Rylance (Wolf Hall, Bridge of Spies), Simon Pegg (Star Trek, Mission Impossible) and Adrian Lester (Riviera, Mary Queen of Scots).

Created, written, directed and executive produced by seven-time BAFTA award-winner Peter Kosminsky (Wolf Hall, Britz), the series also stars Alex Jennings (A Very English Scandal, The Crown), Maisie Richardson-Sellers (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and newcomer Hannah Khalique-Brown.

  1. Whatever you do don’t miss either Peter Kosminsky’s Undeclared War series on TV or Bill Fairclough’s epic spy novel Beyond Enkription in The Burlington Files series. They are both intense, realistic and nerve racking espionage thrillers. In The Burlington Files the protagonist Edward Burlington has even been likened to a posh Harry Palmer (aka Michael Caine). See Channel 4, Peacock and TheBurlingtonFiles website. #SlávaUkrayíni.
