About The Hunting Party
After a secret prison hidden underneath the Wyoming countryside suffers an unexpected explosion, the nation’s worst serial killers are once again at large. Former FBI profiler Bex is brought back into the fold alongside an elite team of soldiers, spies, and special agents to help track down and recapture these deadly criminals before they kill again. Thrust into a world of intrigue and conspiracy, Bex must grapple with not only her own complex past but also the enduring mystery of what was happening at this prison — and who caused the explosion in the first place.
Melissa Roxburgh plays Rebecca “Bex” Henderson, an FBI Special Agent and criminal profiler. Nick Wechsler portrays Oliver Odell, Bex’s former partner and lover. Patrick Sabongui takes on the role of CIA Agent Ryan Hassani, and Josh McKenzie plays Shane Florence, a prison officer at an underground silo known as The Pit in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
The Hunting Party airs on NBC, and with episodes also streaming on Peacock.
