Today, Netflix announced the premiere date and never-before-seen images for the new gripping, action-driven crime series, The Asset, starring Clara Dessau, Maria Cordsen, Afshin Firouzi, and Nicolas Bro, among others.

The aspiring police cadet, Tea, goes undercover as a jeweler to infiltrate a brutal criminal environment that has eluded the grasp of the intelligence service for some time. Adopting a completely new identity, she must befriend the criminal mastermind's wife, Ashley, to gather crucial intelligence. As Tea gets closer to Ashley and witnesses the grim reality of her life under her husbands control and within his criminal cobweb, doubts emerge about where her loyalty truly lies.

Conceptual Director, Samanou Acheche Sahlstr m, says: "I was drawn to tell this story because it explores the complexities of identity and loyalty under extreme pressure. Through Tea's journey, we see how far someone is willing to go to do what they believe is right - also, when the lines between good and evil become blurred. I have always wanted to work on a crime series that puts its characters, their development and their relations to each other at the very center of the story. This is precisely what The Asset does.

The Asset will launch globally on Netflix on October 27, 2025.
