   RUSSELL TOVEY CAST IN  
DISNEY PLUS NEW SERIES SUSPECT: THE SHOOTING OF JEAN CHARLES DE MENEZES
As Deadline reports, our dearest Russell Tovey has joined the cast of Disney Plus new true story series SUSPECT: THE SHOOTING OF JEAN CHARLES DE MENEZES which describes the tragic shooting of an innocent man mistaken for a terrorist in London bombings twenty years ago. Edison Alcaide will play De Menezes whose death happened around two weeks after 7/7 following a second set of planned attacks, which failed but set off a manhunt. The Brazilian electrician was mistakenly shot by police at a London underground station, leading to protests, introspection over shoot-to-kill policies and fierce criticism of the Metropolitan Police. Russell Tovey will also star alongside Conleth Hill, Max Beesley, Emily Mortimer, Daniel Mays, Laura Aikman and Alex Jennings. Mortimer and Hill will play police chiefs.

  1. Tragedy...3 terror attacks in half an year here in Germany...last one was last week and a teenager boy was killed and plenty of wounded...I don't and can't really blame the British police in the series...

    1. Yes, I have seen the one in Munich last week. But unlike your country, here in mine the students protesting against the injustice are being mowed down by cars in the streets by the mobsters supported by our dictator president. So we are being mowed down by our own government not by terrorists.

      Would you also not blame the British police if it was a woman that they shot down?

  2. Sounds like an every day occurrence for the US though. While I do support our officers, I do fear that with Trump and Musk's hateful rhetoric in the past month, it's going to embolden the police to shoot first, ask questions later. Citizen are already spouting off nasty comments about people with non-white skin, those with disabilities, lgbtq+, women who are seeing their rights slowly stripped away.... These are scary times we are living in. And while Kamala was not the candidate we needed, I'm disgusted more and more each day with our government, who pay our officers.

    1. He is defo going crazy especially as Google and social networks are catering now to him. How can you cancel Pride Month, I don't get it?

    2. He can try to cancel it. People will still celebrate. And lying about deporting only criminals, but they are like the gestapo, rounding up any and everyone that they can no matter if they don't have a criminal record. I feel like we're on the path to Nazi Germany right now and anyone who doesn't fit in their little box is in for one hell of a ride. Musk calling anyone who uses government programs the parasite class infuriates me to no end. I'm starting to feel like the liberals. I hate it here.

    4. Of course they did. I see that at least 10 of our states are looking to cut ties with the UN as well to save money there also. We've already pissed off our North and South Neighbors, so why not piss off most of the rest of Europe too? I'll be shocked if we have a single ally besides Putin by the end of Trump's reign.

    5. Trumpster supports our dictator, so there is that, he actually gave him a plot of land to build his Trump tower in the centre of Belgrade and imagine that it is the same plot where the palace of our ministry of defense was and which was bombed to the ground by the Americans during NATO bombings in 1999. So they bomb it and now Trump gets the land....

    6. I don't think Trump is going to be happy until his name is plastered across every country in the world. I'm sure he'd be thrilled if he could turn it all into Trump resorts and gold courses. I supported his run the first time around, but the shit he's pulling now... Idk how anyone in their right mind can think that what he's doing is ok.

    7. Hope he returns to reason soon.
