Apple TV's brand-new heist show Betamax starring Anthony Mackie set to premiere in 2026
Apple TV has had one of the biggest years in 2025, with its Emmy-winning Severance returning for a second season, and Vince Gilligan returning to TV with another hit, Pluribus, among others. It appears this positive streak is set to find its way into 2026 as well as the streamer has announced a brand-new heist show, Betamax, starring Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan.
The official logline for the upcoming release finds:
"a disgraced FBI agent (Mackie) and an American career criminal (Dornan) who play a zero-sum game of cat and mouse across Europe. At the center of it all is the daring, epic raid on a bank vault deep beneath the streets of Zurich"
The Apple TV show was originally titled '12 12 12' as the narrative is set to find us in three timelines: 12 months prior to the heist, 12 hours of the heist, and 12 days after the epic heist. However, it has now been renamed to Betamax. Created by Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble, the eight-episode heist is set to premiere in 2026.
Apart from Anthony Mackie (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) and Jamie Dornan's reunion after the 2019 Synchronic, Betamax is also set to find Kali Reis, Jack Kesy, Agathe Rousselle, Sallie Harmsen, and Ălafur Darri Ălafsson. Per Deadline, the roles that these actors are set to play in the contemporary international heist have not been revealed as of now.
Kari Skogland is set to direct the pilot episode and will be joined by Appleton and Keeble as executive producers. Jamie Dornan and Anthony Mackie are also set to join as executive producers, but Mackie is joining under his production banner, Make It With Gravy. Additionally, they will be joined by Jason Spire for Inspire Entertainment, David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Matt Thunell for Skydance Television.
There aren't many heist shows that have managed to crack the bar of perfection on TV, except for a select few, such as Prison Break, Andor, and Money Heist. Betamax's unique narrative method of the genre might just get it a ticket among these select few shows.
