Atomic
One hell of a ride.
Created by Shazad Latif, Alfie Allen, Gregory Burke, Samira Wiley
On Sky Atlantic, Sky Max
A high-octane, globe-trotting thriller built on the chemistry between two outsiders caught in an escalating uranium-trafficking conspiracy with multiple intelligence agencies in pursuit.
When the path of free-spirited drug smuggler Max collides with JJ, an enigmatic outsider on the run, an unlikely friendship is formed. They're swept into a chaotic, high-stakes mission they never signed up for, trafficking highly enriched uranium across North Africa and the Middle East, with the CIA, MI6, and a global web of opposing forces closing in fast.
