Stephen Fry is set to star in the upcoming Fox drama series "The Interrogator", where he will play the lead role of Conrad Henry, a former MI6 agent with a unique approach to questioning suspects.
The show's premise revolves around Henry and his elite team as they use unconventional methods, including Henry's exceptional intelligence and behavioral maneuvers, to crack the toughest cases. Fry's quirky charm is expected to bring an added layer of complexity to the character.
Fox has ordered 12 episodes for "The Interrogator", with Fry also serving as one of the executive producers along with Bill Harper, Matt Pyken, and a team from Anonymous Content. The show will be directed by Paul McGuigan, who also co-created it with Fry.
This latest series pickup marks another significant addition to Fox's scripted drama lineup, which has been relatively sparse in recent months. With "The Interrogator", the network is looking to capitalize on the success of other procedurals and thrillers that have aired on its schedule in the past.
Fry brings his wealth of experience to the role, having previously appeared in notable shows such as "Bones" and films like "Wilde" and "V for Vendetta". His involvement in "The Interrogator" adds a new layer of depth to the character, making him an intriguing addition to Fox's 2026-2027 broadcast season.

. and can we talk about how awesome it's gonna be to see him back on screen? he's got some serious chops in that department, I mean have you seen "Wilde" 
. but what I'm really excited about is the mix of intelligence and behavioral maneuvers that Henry uses to crack cases - sounds like a real-life detective drama 
. let's hope it gets some love on fox this season!
I'm so stoked to hear about Stephen Fry starring in "The Interrogator"! He's such a talented actor and his quirky charm is gonna bring so much depth to the character Conrad Henry 
. I love how they're saying he'll be bringing an added layer of complexity to the role, it sounds like it's gonna be super interesting to watch 
. Can't wait for more info on this show! 
The fact that he's using his own intelligence and behavioral tricks to crack cases makes him sound like a total genius 
! I'm loving how Fox is trying to mix things up with this new series - it's about time they got some more interesting dramas on TV 
. I think it's great that the show is going for an elite team approach, with Henry's intelligence and behavioral maneuvers playing a key role in solving cases 
.
. It'll be interesting to see how his character navigates these tough cases and how the show balances action and suspense with more cerebral, psychological elements 
.
. The network has been quiet on scripted dramas lately, so this could be a great addition to their lineup 
. Can't wait for the premiere! 
. It's like they're trying to make the bad guy likable by giving them a cool catchphrase and a witty sense of humor 
. I mean, have you seen the shows like 'Killing Eve' or 'True Detective'? They know how to create tension without resorting to weird psychological games 
. I'm not sure if I want to watch some guy charm his way into getting the truth out of people 
.
. And with Fry at the helm, I'm excited to see how he'll bring his unique perspective to the character.
. his quirky charm is going to bring so much depth to the character, and i love how they're using unconventional methods to crack cases - it's like something out of a thriller movie 
. i'm also impressed that fry is getting involved in the production side as an exec producer 
. more procedural drama for fox, yay! 
. fry's character sounds super interesting but i wonder if we're just glorifying manipulation here. still excited to see how he'll bring this unique approach to life on screen tho 
Interesting, Stephen Fry is really taking on some complex roles these days! 
️ Conrad Henry might be the most interesting lead character in a long time... Paul McGuigan as director too? Looks like Fox has something special lined up 
and Anonymous Content's team bringing the show to life 
I'm so excited to see him in this new show "The Interrogator" and I hope they make him a more complex character than just being quirky... I wanna know what makes Conrad Henry tick! 
It's interesting that he's also producing the show, too - it'll be cool to see how his perspective shapes the whole thing.
