Plots(1)
Tyrant tells a story of power, ambition, corruption and seduction: a compelling family drama set against the beautiful backdrop of the Middle East...but the lavish, decadent setting masks a simmering hotbed of political turbulence and unrest.
Brought to you by creator Gideon Raff and executive producer Howard Gordon, Tyrant is set to be nothing short of epic.
Barry Al-Fayeed is the youngest son of a Middle Eastern dictator. Having relocated to California 20 years ago to shake off his father's tyrannical rule and establish himself as a well respected paediatrician, Barry now lives the life of a family man with his wife Molly and two teenage children.
But Barry's cosy bubble is set to burst. An invitation to his nephew's wedding calls for his return to the Middle East, and now it's time to face the injustices of his past, witness his brother Jamal's wicked ways and confront his father.
What was once a quick fly-by turns into something quite different, as Barry's father's health is in decline, everyone – Jamal, their mother Amira, their father's top advisor Yussef, and even easygoing U.S. diplomat John Tucker – expects him to assume a more active role in both the family and the regime. But at what cost?
