Copycat Killer, a popular crime mystery novel by Japanese author Miyuki Miyabe, relates the tale of Taiwan’s first-ever serial murder case and is set in the 1990s in Taipei. On March 31 in all countries, Netflix will be the only place to watch the Chinese-language criminal thriller. The media-savvy serial murderer exploits the considerable interest to turn the investigation into a national spectacle, igniting rumors and infamy.
Award-winning actor Wu Kang-ren portrays a no-nonsense prosecutor who makes a promise to crack the case only to discover that nothing is as it seems. As he attempts to destabilize society’s peace and order, the murderer continues to make a mockery of the law and the legal system.
โGenre series are fascinating as you wonโt figure out who the killer is, right until the end,โ shared Wu, well-known for his versatile performances in Light The Night, Shards of Her and Mom! Donโt Do That. โEvery character is connected by hidden threads, which unravel throughout the story. Likewise, I follow my character in exploring these threads, gradually forming a beautiful web of connections. I look forward to bringing viewers on the journey of discovering the masterful storytelling behind each thread.โ
Other members of the star-studded cast include Alice Ko, Tuo Tsung-hua, Yao Chun-yao, Fandy Fan, Cammy Chiang, and Hsia Teng-Hung, with a guest appearance by Ruby Lin (producer and leading actress of Light the Night).ย
