Per Deadline, Turner has officially joined the cast of Neuromancer, a new sci-fi series based on William Gibson’s novel that was published in 1984.
The series follows “a damaged, top-rung super-hacker named Case (Turner) who is thrust into a web of digital espionage and high stakes crime with his partner Molly, a razor-girl assassin with mirrored eyes, aiming to pull a heist on a corporate dynasty with untold secrets,” according to the official description.
Turner is best known for playing Major John Egan in Apple TV+’s Masters of the Air series.
