What is The Consultant about?

‘The Consultant’ is a gripping American thriller series that weaves a narrative around CompWare, a mobile gaming company grappling with the aftermath of a significant tragedy. The sudden murder of the firm's CEO invites the interference of Regus Patoff, a mysterious and sinister consultant with unorthodox methods. Portrayed by Oscar-winner Christoph Waltz, Patoff's character brings an intense and disconcerting presence to the company, casting a shadow over the confused and wary staff. The series also stars Nat Wolff as Craig Horne, Brittany O’Grady as Elaine Hayman, and Aimee Carrero as Patti, Craig's fiancée, whose lives become inextricably entangled with Patoff's machinations. Based on the novel by Bentley Little and developed for television by Tony Basgallop, this psychological drama delves into the power dynamics of the corporate world and the obscure lines that can form between control and chaos. A tale that blurs the line between ally and manipulator, ‘The Consultant’ presents a chilling portrait of influence and authority in the backdrop of a company struggling to find its footing amidst unnerving changes.
