A Murder at the End of the World puts a new kind of detective at the helm — a Gen Z amateur sleuth and tech-savvy hacker named Darby Hart (played by Corrin). Darby and eight other guests are invited by a reclusive billionaire (portrayed by Owen) to participate in a retreat at a remote, luxurious location. When one of the other guests is found dead, Darby must use all of her skills to prove it was murder against a tide of competing interests before the killer takes another life.
A Murder at the End of the World also stars Alice Braga, Joan Chen, Raúl Esparza, Jermaine Fowler, Ryan J. Haddad, Pegah Ferydoni, Javed Khan, Louis Cancelmi, Edoardo Ballerini, Britian Seibert, Christopher Gurr, Kellan Tetlow, Daniel Olson and Neal Huff. The series is created and directed by Marling and Zal Batmanglij. Marling and Batmanglij also executive produced alongside Andrea Sperling, Melanie Marnich and Nicki Paluga.
The seven-episode limited series is produced by FX Productions and was filmed in Iceland, as well as New Jersey and Utah.
