New Poster for The Bridge, a New Crime Drama on FX Networks

The Bridge (FX Networks, July 2013)

A new poster has been released by FX Networks for its upcoming crime drama The Bridge (right; click for larger image). The tagline: "Every body is connected." (A banner version of the poster is also available, below.)

This present-day crime thriller explores tensions on the U.S.-Mexico border when an American judge known for her anti-immigration views is found dead on the bridge connecting El Paso and Juarez. Sonya Cross (Diane Kruger) from the El Paso Police Department must work with her Mexican counterpart from Chihuahua State Police, Marco Ruiz (Demian Bichir), to catch a serial killer operating on both sides of the border. Marco understands the slippery politics of Mexican law enforcement, and while his police force slowly succumbs to the pressures and demands of the cartel, he's one of the last good men in the department. He's charming, but also cunning as he will do whatever it takes to get what he needs. This does not sit well with Sonya, who has Asperger's and strictly follows rules as well as protocol. Her candid and off-putting personality fuels an unforgiving drive for truth. The case quickly pulls them into a string of murders on the border, a scene already consumed by illegal immigration, drug trafficking, violence and prostitution.

Based on the Scandinavian crime drama of the same title — Danish: Broen; Swedish: Bron, where the body is found on the Øresund Bridge that connects Copenhagen in Denmark with Malmö in Sweden — The Bridge premieres July 10th, 2013 at 10 PM ET/PT.
