Big Sky (STAR on Disney+, February 23)
Already a smash hit Stateside, David E. Kelley’s adaptation of the C.J. Box novel, The Highway, arrives here courtesy of Disney’s new general entertainment channel. A private detective and his former ex-cop wife reluctantly join forces to find two sisters who’ve been kidnapped by a truck driver. As they delve into the case, it becomes apparent that they’re dealing with a serial offender who’s been getting away with murder for years. Set for the most part in rural Montana, Big Sky made history with its casting as an aspiring singer of Jesse James Keitel, the first non-binary actor to play a non-binary series regular on American primetime.

Should he turn himself in and risk an almost certain behind bars whacking or do a legger? All will be revealed over the course of eight action-packed episodes…

Invincible (March 26, Amazon Prime)
Mark Hamill is among the heavyweights lending his voice to this animated son of a superhero yarn from the fertile mind of Robert Kirkman.
