Peacock has carved out a niche with its audience with interesting originals. The streamer’s hit mystery of the week series Poker Face, created by Knives Out visionary Rian Johnson, is perhaps the best known, but their library is full of fan favorite content like Pitch Perfect spin-off Bumper in Berlin, Sarah Snook’s devastating thriller All Her Fault, and the true crime anthology series Dr. Death.
Now the streamer is bringing another exciting thriller series, M.I.A., a new crime drama created by Ozark co-creator Bill Dubuque and is showrun by Dexter writer Karen Campbell. It has set a great cast and episode directors to bring out the story of Etta Tiger Jonze (Shannon Gisela), a girl hellbent on taking revenge for her family after a tragedy.
The series has released a thrilling trailer that will satisfy fans’ demand for epic action set against the backdrop of Miami’s neon-lit underbelly. It highlights Etta’s origin story while leaving the breadcrumbs about the mafia bosses she’ll be attempting to kill. The trailer sets a brilliant tone and will be appreciated by fans who love movies about underdog assassins (Hi, John Wick).
Collider Exclusive · Taylor Sheridan Universe Quiz Which Taylor Sheridan Show Do You Belong In? Yellowstone · Landman · Tulsa King · Mayor of Kingstown
Four worlds. All of them brutal, complicated, and built on power, loyalty, and the price of survival. Taylor Sheridan doesn’t write heroes — he writes people who do what they have to do and live with the cost. Ten questions will reveal which one of his worlds you were made for.
🤠Yellowstone
🛢️Landman
👑Tulsa King
⚖️Mayor of Kingstown
01
Where does your power come from? In Sheridan’s world, everyone has leverage. The question is what kind.
02
Who do you put first, no matter what? Loyalty in Sheridan’s universe is always absolute — and always costly.
03
Someone crosses a line. How do you respond? Every Sheridan protagonist has a line. What matters is what happens after it’s crossed.
04
Where do you feel most in your element? Sheridan’s worlds are as much about place as they are about people.
05
How do you feel about operating in the grey? Nobody in a Sheridan show has clean hands. The question is how they carry the dirt.
06
What are you actually fighting to hold onto? Every Sheridan character is fighting a war. The real question is what they’re defending.
07
How do you lead? Authority in Sheridan’s world is never given — it’s established, maintained, and constantly tested.
08
Someone new arrives and tries to change how things work. Your reaction? Every Sheridan show has an outsider disrupting an established order. Sometimes that outsider is you.
09
What has your position cost you? Nobody gets to where these characters are without paying for it. The bill is always personal.
10
When it’s over, what do you want people to say? Sheridan’s characters all know the ending is coming. The question is what they leave behind.
Sheridan Has Spoken You Belong In…
The show that claimed the most of your answers is the world you were built for. If two tied, both are shown — you’re complicated enough to straddle two Sheridan universes.
🤠 Yellowstone
🛢️ Landman
👑 Tulsa King
⚖️ Mayor of Kingstown
You are a Dutton — or you might as well be. You understand that some things are worth protecting at any cost, and that the modern world’s indifference to history, to land, to legacy, is not something you’re willing to accept quietly. You lead from the front, you carry your family’s weight without complaint, and when someone threatens what’s yours, you don’t escalate — you finish it. You’re not cruel. But you are absolute. In Yellowstone’s world, that combination of ferocity and loyalty doesn’t make you a villain. It makes you the only thing standing between everything that matters and everyone who wants to take it.
You thrive in the chaos of high-stakes negotiation, where the money is enormous, the margins are thin, and the wrong word in the wrong room can cost everyone everything. You’re a fixer — the person called when a situation is already on fire and needs someone with the nerve to walk into it. West Texas oil country rewards exactly what you are: sharp, adaptable, unsentimental, and absolutely clear-eyed about what people want and what they’ll do to get it. You’re not naive enough to think this world is fair. You’re smart enough to be the one deciding who it’s fair to.
You are a Dwight Manfredi — someone who has served their time, paid their dues, and arrived somewhere unexpected with nothing but their reputation and their wits. You adapt without losing yourself. You build loyalty through respect rather than fear, though you’re not above reminding people that the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Tulsa King is for people who are still standing when everyone assumed they’d be finished — who find, in an unfamiliar place, that they’re more capable than the world gave them credit for. You don’t need a throne. You build one, wherever you happen to land.
You carry the weight of a system that is broken by design, and you do it anyway — because someone has to, and because you’re the only one positioned to do it without the whole thing collapsing. Mike McLusky’s world is for people who are comfortable operating where there are no good options, only less catastrophic ones. You speak every language: law enforcement, criminal, political, human. That fluency makes you invaluable and it makes you a target. You’ve made your peace with both. Mayor of Kingstown belongs to people who understand that keeping the peace is not the same as being at peace — and who do the job regardless.
What’s ‘M.I.A’ About?
While most details are under wraps, Peacock previously unveiled a synopsis teasing the plot. Etta dreams of a life in Miami’s glittering, sub-tropical kingdom, but things take a turn when her family’s drug-running business shatters in tragedy. She then “embarks on a dangerous journey through Miami’s neon-lit underbelly that will define who she is and what she’s ultimately capable of.” Along with Gisela, the series also stars Cary Elwes, Danay Garcia, Brittany Adebumola, Dylan Jackson, and Alberto Guerra. Also rounding out the ensemble are Maurice Compte, Gerardo Celasco, and Marta Milans, among others.
Dubuque’s grounded and gritty writing always connects with the audience. His recent releases: His & Her starring Jon Bernthal and Tessa Thompson earned a 70% Rotten Tomatoes score, also Ben Affleck and Bernthal’s The Accountant 2 earned $103.3 million worldwide and garnered a 75% Rotten Tomatoes score, but perhaps he is best known for the Emmy-winning series Ozark. With elements of gritty action and familial bond, M.I.A. will be the one to watch out for. Showrunner Campbell is known for her work on fan-favorite titles such as Dexter, Raised by Wolves, and Outlander. Her range and expertise in complex, character-driven dramas are reflected in the new trailer, which is full of some good character moments. The 9-part crime drama will have hour-long episodes and will debut on May 1.
Check out the trailer for M.I.A. above and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
