Fox's Memory of A Killer released a new promo teasing Patrick Dempsey's portrayal as Angelo Ledda. The promo shows Dempsey's character living a double life and also grappling with a secret that could ruin his life.
In the footage, while Behind Blue Eyes by the English rock band The Who plays in the background, Dempsey's character is shown aiming at his next target. The scene then changes and shows Angelo with his family, and later shows him struggling, perhaps due to losing his memories because of the early onset of Alzheimer's.
The thriller series is based on a 2003 Belgian film De Zaak Alzheimer (La Mémoire Du Tueur). Along with Dempsey's first look as Angelo, the teaser also revealed that the series will premiere in January 2026.
