“You up for playing outside the lines?” Oscar winner Nicole Kidman asks an undercover agent in the first full trailer for Special Ops: Lioness, the latest series by Taylor Sheridan from Paramount+.

Sheridan is best known now for his Yellowstone franchise, but this trailer offers a reminder that he was also the writer behind Denis Villeneuve’s Sicario, and Lioness looks much more in that vein.

The show follows Joe, a CIA operative played by Zoe Saldaña, who works for what is known as the Lioness Program, run by Kidman’s Kaitlyn Meade and Donald Westfield (Michael Kelly). Saldaña recruits Marine Raider Cruz (Laysla De Oliveira).

“You have no family, you have no friends, you were abused until you gave yourself to me,” Joe tells Cruz. “Now you have a purpose and it is noble.” Joe and Cruz head into a “situation unfolding in real time,” where they work to stop an impending terrorist attack.

Produced by MTV Entertainment Studios and 101 Studios, it is the latest in Sheridan’s slate that includes Yellowstone spinoffs 1883 and 1923 as well as Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown.

Along with Special Ops Lioness, his other yet to be released projects are the Billy Bob Thornton starring Land Man and Lawmen: Bass Reeves with Dennis Quaid.

The first two Lionessepisodes stream on July 23.
