Go behind the badge of BBC America's COPPER - and meet Kevin Corcoran (Tom Weston-Jones, MI-5), the central character of this compelling all new original series.
Get to know the intense, rugged Irish-immigrant cop at the heart of the series - and discover his incredible journey. Explains Series Co-Creator & Executive Producer, Emmy® Award Winner Tom Fontana (Homicide: Life on the Streets, Oz), there will be "moments of great passion & great action. There will also quiet moments, intimate moments, sad moments, funny stupid little moments. You're going to be following the life of a very complex character..."
Agrees Weston-Jones, "The story kicks off when he's come back from the Civil War to find out that his wife has disappeared and his daughter is dead... His morals come into question a little, because he has to do the wrong thing for the right reasons, in his head.
What I like about him is that he's so flawed... Some people might say he's an anti-hero, and then people could say he's a hero. It's kind of unsure, but a hell of a lot of fun to be unsure, I like it."
