SYNOPSIS

 

Raised in total seclusion in the remote woods of Eastern Europe, Hanna (Esmé Creed-Miles) has spent her entire young life training to fight those who hunt her and her mercenary father, Erik Heller (Joel Kinnaman). Her survivalist skills are finally tested when she and Erik are separated upon their discovery by a rogue CIA operative, Marissa Wiegler (Mireille Enos) and her team of agents. Hanna has no choice but to embark on a perilous journey alone across Europe as she seeks to reunite with her father and evade - and ultimately take down - the dangerous agents who target them. Hanna's isolated upbringing offers particularly daunting physical and emotional challenges as she is forced to navigate an ever-deepening conspiracy - one that could be the undoing of both her and her father.

Based on the 2011 film, HANNA's eight-episode first season was written by David Farr (The Night Manager), who co-wrote the original feature. It was produced by NBCUniversal International Studios, Working Title Television and Amazon Studios. Director Sarah Adina Smith (Legion, Room 104) helmed episodes one and two of the series, which filmed entirely on-location in Berlin, Hungary, Slovakia, Morocco, Spain and the U.K.

In her breakout role for television, British actress Esmé Creed-Miles stars as Hanna alongside Joel Kinnaman (Altered Carbon, Suicide Squad, Robocop) and Mireille Enos (The Catch, Prime Video’s Good Omens), who reunite on-screen after co-starring in AMC’s Emmy-nominated crime drama The Killing. 

HANNA launches exclusively on Amazon’s video streaming service Prime Video
