Christoph Waltz stars in chilling and suspenseful series The Consultant

White Lotus' Brittany O'Grady also stars.

What do you get when you mix Mythic Quest with a chilling and suspenseful arc? Amazon Prime’s The Consultant.

In the new series, esteemed actor Christoph Waltz plays the titular consultant hired to improve an app-based gaming company.

On February 7, Prime debuted the official trailer, which sets up all eight new series episodes, which will be available to stream on February 24.

Based on Bentley Little’s 2015 novel of the same name, the series explores the sinister relationship between boss and employee — one we all know way too well.

According to the official synopsis, the employees will soon experience new demands and challenges that put everything into question — including their lives.

The trailer reveals that Regus Patoff’s (Waltz) hiring at CompWare comes after the bloody death of the CEO inside his office — and that his resume includes consulting for a company whose CEO died just two weeks after bringing the character to his office.

“How are you enjoying the gaming industry?” Craig (Nat Wolff) says to the new employ.

“How many of these patrons do you think we could fight? I think I could fight four of them, and you could subdue the remaining three,” Patoff responds.

Starring alongside Waltz is Paper Towns star Wolf and White Lotus Season One’s Brittany O’Grady (Elaine) as employees at CompWare. The series also stars Aimee Carrero (The Menu) as Patti.

The Consultant premieres on February 24 on Amazon Prime.
