Netflix has just dropped the first official trailer for His & Hers, a thrilling crime drama led by Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal. All six episodes of the upcoming Netflix title air on Thursday, January 8, 2026.
Fans have something fresh to look forward to at the beginning of the new year. The show is based on Alice Feeney’s popular novels. According to the synopsis, the show will focus on a mystery driven by two people who share a complicated past and collide again through a murder investigation.
First official trailer for His & Hers starring Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal revealed
The trailer introduces viewers to the tense tone that remains central to the story. We also sense a complicated dynamic between Thompson and Bernthal, hinting at a gripping debut with Season 1.
Tessa Thompson plays Anna, who used to work as a news anchor but is now withdrawn from her career and social life. Anna learns about a killing in Dahlonega, which is her hometown. This information drags Anna into the investigation with personal urgency, as she becomes determined to get to the bottom of it.

Anna’s voiceover in the trailer captures the series’ central tension:
“Since there is always more than one side to the story, someone has to be lying.”
The Punisher lead Jon Bernthal plays the character of Detective Jack Harper. He is crucial to the investigation as an officer examining the scene. Jack and Anna are ex-spouses, which further brings another layer of complexity to the story.
At a crime scene, he tells reporters he cannot reveal details, only for Anna to challenge him publicly, escalating the tension between them. Their interactions highlight the series’ theme of competing perspectives and the sense of slippery truths.
The main cast further includes talented actors like Sunita Mani as Priya, Rebecca Rittenhouse as Lexy, and Pablo Schreiber, among others.
His & Hers is developed by William Oldroyd, known for another popular title, Lady Macbeth. Alongside him, Johnson also joins as co-showrunner, writer, and executive producer, and Dubuque as writer and executive producer.
As one of Netflix’s first major releases of 2026, His & Hers has already kickstarted waves of excitement among fans. Both Thompson and Bernthal are familiar faces with successful acting careers and key roles in celebrated franchises. When Bernthal featured in and led Daredevil and The Punisher, fans instantly liked him.
For Tessa, it means stepping away from the world of superheroes and stepping into a different shoe. The trailer sets the tone for a highly charged, thrilling, and engaging show that keeps the new year exciting.
The show airs in 2026, and viewers will be able to stream it on Netflix.
