The Prisoner on ITV1:  Press Pack


Jim Caviezel and Ian McKellen star in the network’s reinvention of the 1960s classic cult thriller, The Prisoner.

Caviezel takes the role of Number Six while McKellen appears throughout the series in the role of Number Two. ITV Studios has co-produced the six-part series with Granada International and AMC, the channel behind Mad Men. 

The six one-hour episodes tell the story of a man who finds himself trapped in a mysterious and surreal place known as The Village, with no memory of how he arrived there.

As he frantically explores his environment, he discovers that its inhabitants are identified by number instead of by name and have no memory of a prior existence or outside civilization.

Not knowing who to trust, Number Six is driven by the desperate need to discover the truth behind The Village, the reason for him being there, and more importantly, how he can survive and escape to his previous life.
