Colman Domingo Is Framed For Murder In Netflix Political Thriller Series ‘The Madness’

Colman Domingo takes the spotlight in The Madness, Netflix’s upcoming political thriller series set to premiere on Nov. 28. In this tense eight-episode drama, Domingo stars as Muncie Daniels, a political consultant turned TV pundit who finds himself entangled in a deadly conspiracy.

The teaser hints at a gripping journey for Muncie, who begins as a man on sabbatical in the Poconos, hoping to write his big novel. But things take a dark turn when he witnesses the murder of a known white supremacist and quickly becomes the prime suspect. “I’m telling you, it was a setup,” Muncie insists, his voiceover capturing the paranoia and urgency of a man on the run.

As Muncie scrambles to clear his name, he is drawn into a web of political intrigue, forced to face powerful adversaries and reconnect with his family. He allies with unexpected figures and confronts the dangers of disinformation in a world teetering on post-truth.

Alongside Domingo, the cast includes Marsha Stephanie Blake, Gabrielle Graham, John Ortiz, and Tamsin Topolski, with guest stars Deon Cole, Bradley Whitford, and others adding depth to the suspense-filled story. The series was created by Stephen Belber and executive produced by Belber, VJ Boyd, director Clement Virgo, and Chernin Entertainment.
