Donald Glover and Maya Erskine are taking Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie‘s spots as undercover, married spies, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. In Prime Video‘s Mr. and Mrs. Smith, a spinoff series of Pitt and Jolie’s 2005 action film of the same name, Glover and Erskine step into their infamous roles as John and Jane Smith, juggling marriage and espionage.
The official show description reads as follows:
Two lonely strangers land a job working for a mysterious spy agency that offers them a glorious life of espionage, wealth, world travels and a dream brownstone in Manhattan. The catch: new identities in an arranged marriage as Mr. & Mrs. John and Jane Smith. Now hitched, John and Jane navigate a high risk mission every week while also facing a new relationship milestone. Their complex cover story becomes even more complicated when they catch real feelings for each other. What’s riskier, espionage or marriage?
Glover is a co-creator – alongside Atlanta writer Francesca Sloane – as well as an executive producer on the series. Sarah Paulson, Paul Dano, Parker Posey, John Turturro, Ron Perlman, Michaela Coel, Alexander Skarsgård, Eiza Gonzalez, Sharon Horgan, Ursula Corbero, Wagner Moura and Billy Campbell also star.
