Interview with Melissa Roxburgh on "The Hunting Party
Overview of the Show:
"The Hunting Party" is a drama series featuring Melissa Roxburgh as Rebecca Henderson, an ex-FBI profiler now sidelined to a casino job.
A major event occurs when a secret government facility known as "The Pit," housing notorious serial killers, explodes, allowing them to escape into society.
Rebecca, who had profiled many of these criminals in the past, is called back into action, eager to leave her casino job behind and return to her true calling.
Rebecca Henderson: Formerly an accomplished FBI profiler; she's highly motivated to regain her professional identity.
Rebecca had previously been dismissed from the Bureau along with her ex-partner, Oliver Odell, due to a past incident.
The character is driven by a desire to understand criminal minds, making her eager to take on the challenge of recapturing escaped serial killers.
Unlike standard crime dramas, "The Hunting Party" reveals criminals early on, focusing instead on the question of why they commit their crimes.
The series explores how these killers have evolved psychologically since their original capture, creating fresh challenges for the protagonists.
Each episode dives deep into the twisted psychology behind criminal actions.
Oliver Odell: Rebecca’s ex-FBI partner, involved romantically in the past, adding emotional complexity and tension to the narrative.
Shane (Joshua Mackenzie): Military expert, strong, intelligent, provides comedic relief.
Jacob Hassani (Patrick Sabongui): CIA operative managing the group; has a mysterious past that complicates the team dynamics.
Jennifer Morales (Sarah Garcia): Intel officer, smart and energetic, plays a key role in the investigations.
Melissa has always been fascinated by true crime and serial killer psychology, reflecting her family’s interest during childhood.
Initially considered a career in criminal profiling herself, making this role particularly appealing.
Premiere: Sunday, January 19th at 7:00 PM on NBC.
Available for streaming on Peacock.
Melissa hopes viewers become captivated by the series, just as audiences did with her earlier hit show, Manifest.
