First-look images from Steven Moffat\u2019s thriller Inside Man<\/a> have been revealed, giving us our first look at David Tennant, Stanley Tucci and other big name cast members in the mysterious project.<\/p>\n

Plot details are being kept tightly under wraps for the four-part series, which is scheduled to launch on BBC One and BBC iPlayer next year, with only a brief (and very cryptic) synopsis released thus far.<\/p>\n

It teases that the show will follow a prisoner on death row in the United States (played by Tucci), a vicar in a quiet English town (Tennant) and a maths teacher trapped in a cellar, whose lives intersect in a \u201cmost unexpected way\u201d. Your guess is as good as ours.<\/p>\n

Despite the lack of details, Inside Man is shaping up to be one of the BBC\u2019s most-anticipated upcoming dramas, with Moffat and executive producer Sue Vertue describing the all-star cast as the \u201cbest ensemble we\u2019ve ever had the chance to work with\u201d.<\/p>

Ben Irving, Commissioning Editor for BBC Drama, added: \u201cSteven Moffat has created another brilliantly original and darkly playful series in Inside Man and it\u2019s no surprise that it has attracted such an extraordinary cast. This will be a \u2018must-watch\u2019 when it lands on BBC One and iPlayer next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

The first-look images include a sneak peek at Tennant in his role as small-town vicar Harry Watling after a service (above), as well as an advance look at Tucci\u2019s death row inmate Jefferson Grieff as he is led down a gloomy prison corridor.<\/p>\n
