Prime Video has released the trailer for Ride or Die, starring Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham. The upcoming series blends the actors’ signature comedic styles with spy-thriller action.
The show’s synopsis reads, “Ride or Die follows best friends Debbie Claybourne (Spencer) and Judith Burton (Waddingham) who thought they knew everything about each other, except Judith turns out to be an international assassin. When a mysterious figure emerges from Judith’s past and a hit goes horribly wrong, both of their worlds are turned upside down as they’re forced to go on the run together. It’s a race against time and a road across Europe, with law enforcement, highly trained assassins, and some very dangerous criminals at their heels.”
