What would you do if you find out your best friend of 20 years was an international assassin?
That’s the dilemma at the heart of Ride or Die, an upcoming action comedy series starring and executive produced by Octavia Spencer and Hannah Waddingham. The Oscar winner and Emmy winner join forces as longtime besties Debbie Claybourne (Spencer) and Judith Burton (Waddingham).
After two decades of friendship, Debbie thinks she knows everything there is to know about Judith. But as it turns out, Judith has been living a double life. She’s actually an international assassin who takes down bad guys for money. Now, though, a mysterious figure from her past has resurfaced, putting her in more danger than usual. And since Debbie is Judith’s ride or die, that means she’s in the crosshairs too.
The first trailer for Ride or Die teases what follows in this (literally) explosive tale of friends on the run. Waddingham gets to go full action hero mode, shooting enemies and kicking butt in hand-to-hand combat. While Debbie is newer to this world of international intrigue, she gets in on the action too. She takes the wheel during a serious car chase, takes down a man using a fire extinguisher, and even jumps off a moving train. Is there nothing these BFFs won’t do for one another?
Ride or Die also stars Ed Skrein, Calam Lynch, Savannah Steyn, Jamie Parker, Jacky Ido, Sylvia Hoeks, and Bill Nighy.
All eight episodes of Ride or Die premiere July 15 on Prime Video.
