Netflix unveiled the trailer for the upcoming comedy series, A Man on the Inside, starring Ted Dunson in the lead role. The series is based on the documentary The Mole Agent, a 2021 Oscar nominee for Best Documentary Feature.

A year after his wife’s passing, he’s become stuck in his routine and grown distant from his daughter. But when he spies a classified ad from a private investigator, he’s inspired to roll the dice on a new adventure, going undercover to solve the mystery of a stolen family heirloom."

A Man on the Inside comes from creator Mike Schur, who has previously created The Good Place, co-creator of Parks and Recreation, and Brooklyn Nine Nine. Mary Elizabeth Ellis, Stephanie Beatriz, Lilah Richcreek Estrada, Stephen McKinley Henderson, Sally Struthers, Eugene Cordero, Margaret Avery, John Getz, and Susan Ruttan, among others.
