Michael C Hall to star in Netflix drama 'Safe'

Four years after the conclusion of "Dexter" Michael C Hall is taking on a new starring role in the Netflix drama "Safe", a thriller from author Harlan Coben.

The show is produced by Hall and Coben, reported Entertainment Weekly.

The 46-year-old actor was the star of Showtime series "Dexter" from 2006 to 2013, and in "Safe" will play a British paediatric surgeon raising two teenage daughters, Jenny and Carrie, alone after the death of his wife.

The family is seemingly safe inside a gated community when the elder daughter sneaks out to a party and a murder and disappearance follow, changing all of their lives.
 

The series is written by award-winning screenwriter Danny Brocklehurst. Amanda Abbington and Audrey Fluerot are also set to star.
