We now know when Monica Raymund’s new crime drama, Hightown, will premiere on Starz! Fans don’t have to wait much longer to tune in to the series.

Monica Raymund of Chicago Fire fame is set to star in a brand new eight-episode crime drama series on Starz called Hightown. TVLine recently reported the official air date of the upcoming show. The show will premiere on Sunday, May 17 at 8/7c on the premium cable network.

Raymund will play a hard-partying National Marine Fisheries agent named Jackie Quiñones. Her life is thrown into chaos when a body is discovered on a beach in Cape Cod. The body is ruled another victim of the opioid epidemic, which motivates Jackie to get clean and sober.

However, things become increasingly complicated for Jackie when she feels drawn to the murder for some reason. She feels driven to solve the murder, which results in her butting heads with Sergeant Ray Abruzzo, who works within the Cape Cod Narcotics Unit.

Both Bruzzo and Jackie fall down the rabbit hole of this mysterious murder in ways they never could have imagined.

The series will also star Riley Voelkel, Amaury Nolasco, Dohn Norwood, Atkins Estimond, and Shane Harper.

Unfortunately, we don’t have a full-length trailer to share for the series yet but we should be getting one within the next couple of weeks. Starz did release a short teaser of the show, though, thankfully!

It is possible that the Hightown premiere could be delayed due to the current health crisis but given that Starz made the announcement yesterday, it is likely the show has finished filming already and is set to air in full.
