U has released a brand-new collection of images from its upcoming six-part original police thriller ‘Hit Point,’ giving viewers another look at the explosive crime drama before it premieres this August.

Following the release of the first-look images earlier this year, the latest stills offer a closer look at the show’s central characters and the dangerous investigation that draws them into the criminal underworld of West London.

The new images feature Nick Blood (Day of the Jackal) and BAFTA nominee Saffron Hocking (Top Boy) together for the first time as detective partners Leo and Bella. As they work to solve a daring heist, the pair’s growing personal connection threatens to complicate an already dangerous investigation.

Also featured in the newly released stills is Peter Serafinowicz, who plays former police officer Carter. One image sees Carter alongside Leo as the pair prepare for action, while William Abadie (Emily in Paris) appears as intimidating crime boss Pascal Dubois, one of the key figures in the series’ criminal underworld.

Written by BAFTA-winning screenwriter Howard Overman (Misfits, The War of the Worlds) and directed by David Caffrey (The Gentlemen, Peaky Blinders), Hit Point combines an adrenaline-fuelled crime thriller with an emotionally charged romantic drama.

The story follows detectives Leo and Bella after an audacious robbery sees three masked criminals, disguised as a lion, a fox and a jaguar, or perhaps a panther, intercept a Range Rover transporting £10 million in cash. Tasked with tracking down the thieves, the detectives soon find themselves navigating a dangerous web of organised crime, deception and divided loyalties.

As the investigation intensifies, the chemistry between Leo and Bella becomes increasingly impossible to ignore, raising questions about whether their emotions will help or hinder the pursuit of justice. With shifting allegiances and unexpected twists, Hit Point promises that nothing is quite as it first appears.

‘Hit Point’ premieres this August on U and U&Dave.
