Sean Bean to Star in Crackle Drama ‘The Oath’

Quote
The 'Game of Thrones' alum will play a hard-changing cop in the 10-episode series from 50 Cent.

Sean Bean is headed to Crackle.

The Lord of the Rings actor has been cast in The Oath, a new drama from the Sony Pictures Television Network streaming service. The 10-episode series is executive produced by 50 Cent and his G-Unit Film & Television Inc., and will debut in 2018.

The Oath is described as a gritty, action-packed drama that explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join — only a select few make the cut — but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

 Bean will play Tom Hammond, a hard-charging cop and ruthless leader of the prominent gang made up of those who are meant to enforce the law. After doing a deal with an undercover FBI agent, Hammond finds himself behind bars but after he's released, his desire to make his way back to the top of the food chain and back in control of the gang he once led puts him head to head with those who used to have his back.

The series is created by Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-O, Secrets and Lies), who worked as a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputy in South Central for 17 years, a dozen of which as an undercover officer. The show takes ‎an unforgiving look at the complicated dynamics in these organizations and documents the lives of those willing to risk it all to have it all.

“It’s great to be working with director Jeff Thomas again and the story's creator, Joe Halpin for Crackle.  I’m really looking forward to exploring this fascinating story,” said Bean.

"Sean Bean is the perfect choice for the role of Tom Hammond," added Eric Berger, Crackle’s general manager and executive vice president of digital at Sony Pictures Television Networks. “He embodies the grit and intensity that drives this character throughout the series’ uncompromising and fast paced narrative. We are excited to have him anchor this incredible production from Joe Halpin and 50 Cent's G-Unit division."

Halpin will serve as the showrunner and executive produce alongside 50 Cent, Todd Hoffman and Dennis Kim of Storied Media. The show’s premiere episode will be directed by Blindspot’s Jeff T. Thomas.

Bean is represented by CAA and Jane Epstein at Independent Talent in the UK.

'True Blood' Alum Joins Crackle Drama 'The Oath'
Quote

Ryan Kwanten is joining Sean Bean in the gritty 10-episode series from the Sony Pictures Television Network streaming service.

Crackle’s new drama The Oath is adding a True Blood alum to its cast.

Ryan Kwanten has boarded the action-packed series from the Sony Pictures Television Network streaming service starring Sean Bean. The actor will also serve as a producer on the 10-episode show, which is created and written by former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-O) and executive produced by 50 Cent.

Kwanten will play Steve Hammond, son of Tom Hammond (Bean) and the leader of a cop gang, The Ravens. A cool, pragmatic, reluctant leader with the mind and instincts of a shrewd tactician, Hammond is a survivor — a natural protector who values taking care of those closest to him, his family and his team.

The Oath, which will debut in 2018, is a gritty drama that will explore a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join. Only a select few make the cut, but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

‘The Oath’: Cory Hardrict Joins Crackle Drama Series
Quote
Cory Hardrict (American Sniper, Gran Torino) has joined the cast of Crackle’s upcoming drama series The Oath, executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (Power) and his G-Unit Film & Television.
Written and created by former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s deputy Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-0, Secrets & Lies), the 10-episode original series explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join—only a select few make the cut–but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

Hardrict will play Officer Cole Hammond, a cop whose cool and composed demeanor conceals an underlying sense of paranoia. Raised by white foster parents, Hammond is fueled by an intense dedication to protect the only family he has ever had—putting him at odds with the other members of the Ravens gang. He joins an ensemble cast that includes Sean Bean (Game of Thrones) and Ryan Kwanten (True Blood).

‘The Oath’: J.J. Soria Cast In Crackle Drama Series
Quote
J.J. Soria (Animal Kingdom, The Fosters) is set for a key role opposite Ryan Kwanten and Sean Bean in Crackle’s upcoming drama series The Oath, executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (Power) and his G-Unit Film & Television.
 Written and created by former Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Deputy Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-0, Secrets & Lies), the 10-episode original series explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies. They are nearly impossible to join — only a select few make the cut – but once inside, members will do what they must to protect one another from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

Soria will play Officer Pete Ramos, partner and friend of Officer Steve Hammond (Kwanten), and second-in-command of the Ravens cop gang. Ramos is streetwise with a nervous energy and a family man who is driven by the need to prove himself worthy of his wife, who comes from wealth and privilege. In addition to Kwanten and Bean, Soria joins previously announced cast Cory Hardrict, Katrina Law and Arlen Escarpeta.

Crackle’s The Oath Begins Production in Puerto Rico

Crackle’s The Oath begins production in Puerto Rico

Crackle, Sony Pictures Television Networks’ free, ad-supported streaming network, today announced that production has officially begun on their upcoming original drama series, The Oath. Check out photos from Crackle’s The Oath set in San Juan, Puerto Rico in the gallery below.


Sean Bean (Game of Thrones, The Fellowship of the Ring) leads the series ensemble cast, which also includes Ryan Kwanten (True Blood), Cory Hardrict (American Sniper, Gran Torino), Katrina Law (Training Day), Arlen Escarpeta (The Magicians), and JJ Soria (Animal Kingdom, The Fosters). Additional cast members announced today include Michael Malarkey (The Vampire Diaries), Eve Mauro (CSI Miami), Kwame Patterson (The Wire, American Crime Story), Linda Purl (Homeland, True Blood) and Elisabeth Röhm (Law & Order).


Set to debut in 2018, the 10-episode original is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and his G-Unit Film & Television Inc. and the premiere episode will be directed by Jeff T. Thomas (Blindspot, Wayward Pines). A gritty, action drama, The Oath explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join—only a select few make the cut–but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

Creator and executive producer Joe Halpin said: “We’ve assembled a top notch production crew and a stellar cast. This show reflects a very personal and gritty narrative, so I want to thank Crackle for allowing us to take the reins and get this party started.”

Eric Berger, GM, Crackle, said: “This show brings together an a-list ensemble and creative team who are creating a completely unique show for our audience.  We want to thank Joe for his leadership on the ground and to 50 Cent and his team for their enormous support and partnership with this series.”

Michael Malarkey plays Sam Foster, a police officer and lieutenant for the Vipers, a rival cop gang. Going through a difficult and expensive divorce, he is involved in a forbidden love affair with Karen Beach (portrayed by Law), a member of the Ravens.


Eve Mauro portrays Theresa Winters, a cop and leader of the Vipers, a rival cop gang within the department. Ruthless and unpredictable, there are no lines she is not willing to cross.  With Tom Cole (Sean Bean) in prison, she has taken his place working with local drug dealer, Neckbone (Kwame Patterson).

Kwame Patterson plays Neckbone, a calculating and dangerous high-level drug dealer with multiple cop gangs on his payroll. His organization is currently under threat from a new designer drug. As the series progresses, he sets off a chain of events that forces the Ravens into the middle of a drug war.

Linda Purl is Gwenn Hammond, Steve and Cole’s mother, and Tom’s ex-wife. Suffering from late stage cancer, Gwenn takes laundered money from Steve for her treatments.  Though she and Tom have ended their marriage they remain on good terms, and still care about each other.

Elisabeth Röhm plays Aria Price, a senior FBI agent. Byrd’s (Escarpeta) handler in the undercover operation targeting the Ravens. A shrewd bureaucratic animal and creature of expediency. Her mandate is to steer corrupt cops back to the right path, but there’s also a darker, more opportunistic side to Aria that comes to light further on in the series.

 
Created by Joe Halpin (Hawaii Five-O, Secrets and Lies), who worked as a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department deputy in South Central for 17 years, 12 of which as an undercover officer, the series takes ‎an unforgiving look at the complicated dynamics in these organizations and documents the lives of those willing to risk it all, to have it all.

Executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and his G-Unit Film & Television Inc., the gritty, action-packed drama, explores a world of gangs made up of those sworn to protect and defend and sheds light on corrupt and secret societies that are nearly impossible to join—only a select few make the cut–but once inside, members will do what they must to protect each other from enemies on the outside and from within their own ranks.

The Oath is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and his G-Unit Film & Television Inc., Todd Hoffman and Dennis Kim of Storied Media Group, Anne Clements (StartUp) and Joe Halpin who is also creator, writer and showrunner. The premiere episode will be directed by Jeff T. Thomas (Blindspot, Wayward Pines).

‘The Oath’: Sarah Dumont, Billy Malone & Aaron Abrams To Recur In Crackle Drama Series
Quote
Sarah Dumont (Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse), Billy Malone (Santa Clarita Diet, Code Black) and Hannibal alum Aaron Abrams have signed on for recurring roles in Crackle’s upcoming drama series The Oath, executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson (Power) and his G-Unit Film & Television. The series, set to debut in 2018, is in production in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

 Dumont will play Kate Miller, the beautiful new pit boss at Frank’s (Malone) casino who has a mysterious past. She attracts the attention of Steve Hammond (Ryan Kwanten), who tries to win her over. Kate’s tough exterior has served as an effective defense mechanism so far, but will she let her guard down when Steve comes into her world?

Malone’s Frank Albanese is the casino manager who has been a mentor to Steve since his teenage years. Frank’s unwavering loyalty and guidance provides Steve with a father figure he was lacking from Tom (Sean Bean) all these years. When Steve and the Ravens’ recent exploits bring unwanted attention to Frank’s casino,  their bond is put to the test.

Abrams plays David Shankman, the arrogant, young hotshot CEO of Helixa Corporation. He cuts a deal with the leader of the Vipers to distribute his new drug Zytocet as “WMD” to keep his company afloat while awaiting FDA approval. This reckless rich kid unknowingly sets in motion a deadly series of events that shape the first season.
