You already know that Nordic streamer Viaplay is planning a world expansion and it is already available in UK and some other European countries, and now they have added another English language series to their slate: Richard Rankin will play inspector REBUS in their new English original. The story follows 40-year-old Inspector John Rebus at a psychological crossroads following an altercation with an infamous Edinburgh gangster. At odds with a job increasingly driven by technocrats, involved in a toxic affair he knows he needs to end, and all but supplanted in his daughter’s life by his ex-wife’s wealthy new husband, Rebus begins to wonder if he still has a role to play – either as a family man or a police officer. Ian Rankin, no relation with Richard himself, wrote more than 20 novels about inspector Rebus.
