The Port of San Pedro: A New Noir Series

As undisputed fans of all things dark, chaotic, and deadly, it seems like it's our duty to bring to your attention The Port of San Pedro, an upcoming television series created by Cleo Valente.

The Port of San Pedro is a clear homage to the glory days of noir, from its black-and-white stylization to the schemings of the duplicitous femme fatale, Luli-May Tang. Throw in Nick de Salvo (Steve Polites), an undercover detective who's teamed up with his corruptible police captain, Sebastian Montenero (Luke Fattorusso), and you've got yourself a classic tale that knows where its roots first grew.

The series' synopsis informs us that Luli-May Tang (Melodie Shih) is a Chinese woman who's running an illegal currency forgery operation in Macao and has started to look into new ventures at the port of San Pedro. Luli-May is assisted by Mike Moretti (Mark Mikita), a mute sociopath who serves as her bodyguard. For Nick and Sebastian, their progress is impeded by Augustine “Quint” Quintero (Jesus Guevara), a morally ambiguous man who's attracted equally to both new opportunities and the deadly femme fatale.

At this time, there's no news as to when (and where) Season 1 will premiere, but a teaser trailer has recently been released.
