Looking to add some thrill to your summer? Apple TV+‘s new show Hijack had its finale Wednesday (Aug. 2), which means all seven episodes are available to watch now — and they’re filled drama, action and suspense.
The show stars Idris Elba (who also executive produced the series) as Sam Nelson, a corporate negotiator whose travels get an unexpected disturbance. When he boards a seven-hour flight from Dubai to London, the plane gets hijacked. Elba’s character then comes in and attempts to use his negotiating skills to help him and his fellow passengers get home alive.
Other characters include DI Daniel O’Farrel (Max Beesley), First Officer Anna Kovacs (Kaisa Hammarlund), Zahar Gahfoor (Archie Panjabi), Eve Myles (Alice Sinclair) and more.
Those familiar with the show 24 may recognize similarities between the plots, but, with the help of director Jim Field Smith, Apple TV+’s version will be filled with new twists and turns you’ll have to see to believe.
