However, Keene must make a gamble for his future when he is presented with an offer\u2026 to undergo his full sentence at the minimum-security prison with no possibility for parole OR to take on mission impossible in hell.<\/p>\n Keane would be transported to a maximum-security prison housing the worst criminals imaginable, all to befriend suspected serial killer Larry Hall (Hauser). Keene is tasked with manipulating his new ally into confessing the location where the bodies of several young girls may have been buried. Time is ticking for Keene as he must get Hall to confess before the suspected killer\u2019s appeal is sent off.<\/p>\n Speaking about the dynamic between his and Hauser\u2019s characters, Egerton told RadioTimes.com<\/strong>: \u201cThey\u2019re two characters that love each other desperately, but almost kind of to a fault. They\u2019re sort of involved in messing each other up a bit as well, I think. So it was a really nuanced relationship on the page and really interesting.\u201d<\/p> Taron Egerton, playing Jimmy Keene, stars alongside several acclaimed actors in the Black Bird cast.<\/p>\n Paul Walter Hauser (Cruella), Greg Kinnear (As Good as It Gets) and Sepideh Moafi (The Deuce) also play key roles, while Goodfellas icon Ray Liotta<\/a> \u2013 who sadly passed away in May 2022 \u2013 appears in his final TV role.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s a list of the top names in the Black Bird cast:<\/p>\n You can watch the trailer for Black Bird and get a sense of what\u2019s in store right here.<\/p>\n![\"""\"](\""https:\/\/images.immediate.co.uk\/production\/volatile\/sites\/3\/2022\/07\/Paul-Walter-Hauser-black-bird-757b8cd.jpg?quality=90&resize=620%2C413"\" "\\"\"\"\\"\/")
