Prime Video has announced that the limited series 'The Gray House', produced by Kevin Costner and Morgan Freeman, will premiere on February 26. The Civil War epic, directed by Roland Joffé, has released its first trailer ahead of the launch.
The series stars Mary-Louise Parker, Daisy Head, Amethyst Davis, and Ben Vereen. It tells the true story of a group of women—a Virginia socialite, her mother, a formerly enslaved woman, and a courtesan—who operate a spy network within the Confederacy, risking their lives for the Union cause.
The trailer features scenes of masked plotters, railroads, and full-scale battles, with one character asking: 'If we leave evil alone, are we responsible for it growing?' The eight-episode series will be released simultaneously on Prime Video.
'The Gray House' was written by Leslie Greif, Darrell Fetty, and John Sayles. It is produced by Costner's Territory Pictures, Freeman's Revelations Entertainment, and Greif's Big Dreams Entertainment. The cast also includes Paul Anderson, Ian Duff, Hannah James, and Robert Knepper.
The soundtrack features an original song by Willie Nelson, as well as contributions from Shania Twain, Killer Mike, Yolanda Adams, and a co-write by Jon Bon Jovi. Paramount Global Content Distribution handled the US deal.
