If you watch a FX on a regular basis, I’m pretty sure you’ve seen promo clips for a summer series called The Bridge. A while back we posted some mysterious 10-second snippets for the series, and although they were pretty short, we’ve all been pretty excited and eagerly anticipating the new show. With trailers for the networks’ fall shows upon us, FX has now released a full trailer for The Bridge and its looking even more promising. The series, which is a remake of a Scandinavian crime drama, comes from Homeland writer Meredith Stiehm, and stars Diane Kruger and Demian Bichir as detectives on opposite sides of the U.S.-Mexico border who work together to stop a serial killer. On top of that, Mexican filmmaker Gerardo Naranjo, who directed one of our favourite films of 2011, Miss Bala, has directed the pilot. Watch the trailer below, and »

Earlier this year, FX announced the 13 episode pick up of Meredith Stiehm's The Bridge, an adaptation of Bron about the Denmark/Sweden border.

Steihm previously worked on Homeland and created Cold Case. Judging from the unbelievably tense trailer, her talents will be more than showcased on this show. The Bridge premieres on July 10th at 10:00pm on FX.

Barbara Hall Joining Homeland as Co-Executive Producer
22 February 2013 8:15 AM, PST | Indiewire Television | See recent Indiewire Television news »
Homeland showrunner Alex Gansa has picked the woman (hopefully she won't be the only woman) to replace Meredith Stiehm who last year was the lone woman writer on staff. Stiehm left to work on her new FX series, The Bridge. Barbara Hall, who has worked on Judging Amy, Army Wives and was also the creator of Joan of Arcadia, will be joining the Homeland staff as a co-executive producer. She’s signed a two year contract. Hall is also currently developing a script for CBS, and if that gets picked up for the 2014-15 season, Hall would leave Homeland to work as showrunner for the new project. So it would be smart for Homeland to hire more than one woman so they won't be in a position of again having no women writers on a show that clearly needs a woman's voice as part of the writing team.
