Psychological thriller1 Chosen, the first Chinese three-part drama adapted from an American series, will begin airing in China on leading streaming platform iQIYI from this Sunday (January 7).

Chosen is a co-production between iQIYI and Sony Pictures. The show has been picked up by Netflix and is set for a wide international release in 2018.

iQIYI held an event in Beijing on Friday to promote the new show. And advertisements for the show have been screened in Times Square in New York. 

The show tells the story of lawyer, father, and husband Ian Mitchell who wakes up one morning to discover a loaded gun and a photo of a stranger in a box delivered to his doorstep. Given orders to assassinate2 the stranger or lose his own life and that of his daughter, Ian turns into an unwilling3 killer4 who has to risk all to protect his family.

The Chinese version of the drama largely sticks to the same plot as the American original, but includes local settings and characters.

Directed by Australia’s Tony Tilse, the new series has a mixed Asian and Western cast including Taiwan-born Blue Lan Cheng-lung and Deng Jiajia, as well as Australian actor, singer, and model Sam Hayden-Smith, and Australian actor and composer Nathaniel Kelly.
