Fox Gives Stephen Fry’s Spy Drama ‘The Interrogator’ a 12-Episode Series Order

The 12-episode order underscores Fox’s direct-to-series, co-owned approach for the 2026–27 slate.

Overview

  • Stephen Fry leads as Conrad Henry, a former MI6 agent who relies on behavioral tactics to extract information from high-risk suspects.
  • Fry wrote the pilot with revisions by Bill Harper and Matt Pyken, and all three serve as executive producers.
  • Paul McGuigan is attached to direct and executive produce alongside Anonymous Content, Neil Burger, and Likely Story’s Anthony Bregman and Miriam Mintz.
  • The series is a Lionsgate Television and Fox Entertainment Studios co-production slated for the 2026–27 season, joining Fox’s Baywatch reboot on the scripted roster.
  • Sources close to the project say Harper’s revisions were influential in securing the straight-to-series greenlight, with additional casting and premiere details still to come.
