Airdate: Emperor of Ocean Park

New US series Emperor of Ocean Park, from John Wells and Sherman Payne, will premiere on Binge in July, but a month later on Showcase.

The series stars Forest Whitaker, Grantham Coleman, Tiffany Mack, Paulina Lule, Keith Powers, Kelli Simpkins, Keith Kupferer, and Deanna Reed-Foster.

Emperor of Ocean Park is set in the worlds of politics, elite academia, and the beaches of Martha’s Vineyard. It follows Talcott Garland (Coleman), an esteemed law professor whose quiet life is shattered when his father, Judge Oliver Garland, dies of an apparent heart attack. The nature of the judge’s death is questioned by Tal’s sister, Mariah, a former journalist and inveterate conspiracy theorist, who believes that the judge, a failed Black nominee to the Supreme Court, met with foul play.

Emperor of Ocean Park is produced by John Wells Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television, with John Wells, Erin Jontow, and Shukree Tilghman serving as Executive Producers alongside Sherman Payne.

Monday 15 July on Binge / 8:30pm Tuesday 13 August at 8.30pm on Showcase.
