Prolific crime fiction author Dennis Lehane is returning to the world of TV with a new Apple TV+ miniseries.
Lehane, who created the Emmy-winning “Black Bird,” is reuniting with “Black Bird” star Taron Egerton on a new crime drama; “Smoke” premieres tomorrow, June 27, with two episodes.
Inspired by the podcast “Firebug,” “Smoke” follows a detective and an arson investigator who team up to find and stop two serial arsonists, leading them directly into a “twisted game of secrets and suspicions.”
Egerton stars in the series alongside Jurnee Smollett and John Leguizamo.
When does ‘Smoke’ come out on Apple TV+?
Officially, new episodes of “Smoke” release Fridays on Apple TV+, beginning with the June 27 two-episode premiere.
However, Apple TV+ will often release new episodes the night before their listed premiere dates, so it’s likely you’ll be able to watch new episodes of “Smoke” as early as 9:00 p.m. ET on Thursday nights.
How to watch ‘Smoke’ For Free:
“Smoke” airs exclusively on Apple TV+, so you’ll need a subscription to watch the new episodes as they drop.
Apple TV+ offers a seven-day free trial for users, so you’ll be able to watch a few episodes (depending on when you subscribe) before the $9.99/month payments kick in.
