Simu Liu and Melissa Barrera play dangerous spy games in the teaser trailer for Peacocks upcoming espionage thriller The Copenhagen Test, which dropped on Sunday.

Liu plays first-generation Chinese-American intelligence analyst Alexander Hale, who discovers his brain has been hacked. That allows access to everything he sees and hears, which makes Hale an open book to his hidden puppet masters.

I dont know who I can trust anymore, Hale says at one point as hes caught between his shadowy agency and unseen hackers. Enter Barrera as Michelle, a mysterious siren who trades both punches and steamy kisses with Hale, judging by the series first-look footage, as he desperately tries to uncover the identity of his hackers. Meanwhile Hale must continue to act normal to flush out whos responsible for the hacking and prove where his allegiance lies. If they suspect youre compromised, youre dead, Hale is warned as he goes down a rabbit hole in the sci-fi spy thriller.

The Copenhagen Test is set to premiereDec. 27 on Peacock, and the release of the teaser coincides with co-star Liu touting the eight-parter during aNew York Comic Conpanel. The series, set five minutes in the future, also stars Sinclair Daniel, Brian DArcy James, Mark OBrienandKathleen Chalfant.

The Copenhagen Test was created by Thomas Brandon, who also showruns, writes and executive produces the series alongside Jennifer Yale. Also sharing executive producer credits are James Wan, Liu, Michael Clear, Rob Hackett, Mark Winemaker and Jet Wilkinson.
