The Artful Dodger Reveals Photos, Premiere Release Date for Disney+ Series

The Artful Dodger reveals photos, plus the premiere date of November 29 on Disney+ and Hulu in the United States for the eight-episode series, which stars Thomas Brodie-Sangster.

“The Artful Dodger is an irreverent follow-up to Charles Dickens’ Oliver Twist exploring the adult double life of the famous prince of thieves,” per the official synopsis. “Set in 1850s Australia, in the lively colony of Port Victory, Jack Dawkins, aka The Artful Dodger, has transferred his fast fingers as a pickpocket to the nimble skilled fingers of a surgeon. Dodger’s past returns to haunt him with the arrival of Fagin, luring him back into a world of crime. A greater threat – to Dodger’s heart – is Lady Belle, the Governor’s daughter, determined to become the colony’s first female surgeon.”

It continues: “From heists and life-and-death surgeries to the harsh realities of the criminal world mingling with the middle ground and gentry, this eight-part series is a tale of reinvention, betrayal, redemption, and love with a twist.”
