Another show rooted in drugs and their lords, Ozark will see Jason Bateman taking a decidedly dramatic turn (something he showed he was capable of with The Gift).

Created by Bill Dubuque (The Judge, The Accountant), it'll follow Bateman's character as he moves from the city to the Lake of the Ozarks, and has to pay off a debt to a dangerous drug lord. Laura Linney will play the wife of Bateman's character, while he'll also be directing half the series.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
