As described online by Peacock and as shown in the trailer, Rian Johnson's "Poker Face" will be a 10-episode series centered around Natasha Lyonne's Charlie, who has "an extraordinary ability to determine when someone is lying," per the show synopsis.
"What is it, a women's intuition?" asks legendary actor Luis Guzmán in the new trailer. To which Lyonne's Charlie replies: "No, it's not a tampon commercial. It's a real thing!"
According to Peacock, Charlie basically travels around the country and lives out of her Plymouth Barracuda. "She hits the road ... and with every stop encounters a new cast of characters and strange crimes she can't help but solve," the synopsis says. In the trailer, Johnson makes it a point to play up Charlie's powers, which are expected to be on full display throughout the show's tenure.
"What's it like? Always knowing the truth?" asks Oscar winner Adrien Brody's character at the start of the trailer. "There's nothing mystical about it," Charlie tells him. "I can just tell."
Rian Johnson's "Poker Face" is slated to start streaming on Peacock on January 26.
