“Labyrinth,” co-starring Tom Felton and John Hurt, to air in US
Labyrinth was filmed on location in Carcassonne, France, and Cape Town, South Africa. It tells the stories of two women, one in medieval France and one in modern France, both searching for the Holy Grail.
From Broadway World:
In Carcassonne, France, in the year 1209, 17-year-old Alais (Jessica Brown-Findlay, “Downton Abbey,” “Misfits”), is given a mysterious book by her father; a book [that] he claims contains the secret of the true Grail. Although Alais cannot understand the book’s strange words and labyrinth symbols, her father instructs her to protect the book no matter what happens to him. Alais realizes that her destiny lies in keeping the secret of the labyrinth safe. Eight centuries later, at an archaeological dig in the French Pyrenees, a young volunteer named Alice Tanner (Vanessa Kirby, “The Hour,” “Great Expectations”) discovers two skeletons in a forgotten cave. Puzzled by the labyrinth symbol carved into the rock, she realizes she’s disturbed something that was meant to remain hidden. Somehow, a link to a horrific past – Alice’s own past – has been revealed.
The series was originally filmed back in 2011, but there has been no word of release in the United States until now. The premiere date and time have not yet been announced.
