In said revenge mission, Nemo audaciously steals a prototype submarine from the penal colony in which he is imprisoned, escaping into the ocean with a motley crew of fellow prisoners.

The cast also includes Georgia Flood (Apples Never Fall) as Humility Lucas, Céline Menville (Emily in Paris) as Loti and Thierry Frémont (Liaison) as Benoit, while Grant (Loki) and Anna Torv (Fringe) are among Season 1’s guest stars.
