Stan, Australia’s unrivalled home of original productions, today released the haunting teaser for the six-part Stan Original Series Black Snow, which will premiere on New Year’s Day, only on Stan.
The Black Snow teaser debuted last night after the Yellowstone double-episode premiere, and stars Travis Fimmel (Vikings) in the lead role with newcomers Talijah Blackman-Corowa, Jemmason Power, Molly Fatnowna and Eden Cassady, alongside Brooke Satchwell (Stan Original Film Poker Face), Alexander England (Stan Original Series C*A*U*G*H*T), Erik Thomson (C*A*U*G*H*T), Kym Gyngell (Stan Original Series No Activity), Rob Carlton (Stan Original Series Bali 2002), Jimi Bani (Mabo), Daniela Farinaci (Total Control) and Lucy Bell (The Secrets She Keeps). The series will also feature the screen debut of Australian music sensation Ziggy Ramo.
A gripping six-part, one-hour mystery-drama series set in a small town in North Queensland with deep ties to the Australian South Sea Islander community, Black Snow combines the character-driven storytelling of a coming-of-age drama with the captivating mystery of a classic whodunit.
In 1994, seventeen-year-old Isabel Baker (Talijah Blackman-Corowa) was murdered. The crime shocked the small town of Ashford and devastated Isabel’s Australian South Sea Islander community. The case was never solved, the killer never found. But, 25 years later, the opening of a time capsule unearths a secret that puts cold-case Detective James Cormack (Travis Fimmel) on the trail of the killer.
Black Snow is produced by Goalpost Television, created by Lucas Taylor (Harrow), writing alongside Boyd Quakawoot (Black Comedy) and Beatrix Christian (Jindabyne). Directed by Sian Davies (Stan Original Series The Gloaming) and Matthew Saville (Please Like Me) and shot by Murray Lui (Top End Wedding), the series is produced by Goalpost’s Rosemary Blight (The Invisible Man), alongside Lois Randall and Kaylene Butler.
