UPDATE: The highly anticipated trailer for Patrick Dempsey‘s new series, Memory of a Killer, has just been released, giving fans an urgent glimpse into this gripping crime thriller. Set to premiere in a two-night event starting on January 25, 2026, on FOX, this series promises to blend high-stakes action with emotional depth.
In the trailer, viewers see Dempsey’s character, Angelo, a hitman grappling with the onset of Alzheimer’s. The chilling tagline, “One man, two lives, and a mind he can’t trust,” teases a complex narrative filled with suspense and tension. Angelo leads a double life as a hitman in New York City and a photocopier salesman and father in Cooperstown, but as his condition worsens, his worlds begin to collide dangerously.
The series, inspired by the award-winning 2003 Belgian film De Zaak Alzheimer, explores the harrowing effects of memory loss while maintaining the thrills of a crime drama. As Angelo’s secret past threatens his family’s safety, viewers can expect a rollercoaster of emotions and gripping storytelling.
Earlier this year, Michael Thorn, President of FOX Television Network, emphasized the series’ compelling narrative and character dynamics. He stated, “Memory of a Killer is a propulsive series with a noisy, unrelenting character hook that immediately grabbed our attention.” Thorn described Angelo as a “complicated antihero facing unimaginable danger,” promising an engaging experience for viewers.
Mark your calendars! The series will debut on FOX on January 25, with the following episode available for streaming on Hulu the next day. Fans are buzzing with excitement as they anticipate the intense performances and thrilling action sequences showcased in the newly released trailer.
