Spooks: The Greater Good: trailer

Spooks may have ended its small screen run, but we’re in for a feature film Spooks: The Greater Good -and by the looks of things it should be a ripper.

Peter Firth returns as Harry Pearce with Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) as a new character, MI5 spy Will Holloway.

The storyline sees Pearce being forced to resign after high-profile terrorist Adem Qasim (Elyes Gabel) escapes from MI5 custody. When Pearce disappears off a bridge into the Thames, Harington’s former agent Holloway is drafted in from Moscow to foil a bomb threat from Qasim and uncover the truth surrounding his former mentor.

Jonathan Brackley and Sam Vincent wrote the script, with Bharat Nalluri directing the film.

It opens in the UK in early May.
