Hollywood star Tom Hiddleston is set to front a 10-part political thriller, White Stork, for Netflix. The series will see Tom playing politician James Cooper, whose parliamentary ambitions and personal life are thwarted when he is the subject of a vetting process by Asher Millan. It’s been created, written and executive produced by Jericho scribe Chris Dunlop. It is directed by Kristoffer Nyholm.

The project marks something of a departure for Hiddleston, who has most recently graced the big screen as Thor’s nemesis Loki under the Avengers franchise. He’s also set to lead Disney Plus series Loki, which is currently filming. The British actor garnered critical acclaim back in 2016 for a star turn as night manager-turned-spy Jonathan Pine in BBC One and AMC’s hit co-production, The Night Manager.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
