With their impressive resumes, these two talented actors are sure to deliver an unforgettable performance that will leave viewers on the edge of their seats.


Matthew Rhys and John Krasinski are set to engage in an intense competition (perhaps a mental or emotional battle instead?) in an exhilarating new television series on Amazon Prime Video. These talented actors have been chosen as the leads for the streaming service’s latest production, Silent River, which portrays their characters grappling with the chilling revelation that a serial killer lurks within their close-knit community.

According to Variety’s latest report, it appears that Aaron Rabin will rejoin Sam Krasinski and Andrew Bernstein for an upcoming series. Both Krasinski and Bernstein are set to direct and produce the project as well. These three gentlemen previously collaborated on Krasinski’s other Amazon production, “Jack Ryan,” which currently has a film adaptation in development.

According to the official description:

Under the perspective of two individuals unknowingly tied, ‘Silent River’ delves into the fissures of a tranquil American town, as they uncover a hidden serial killer lurking within their midst.

Apart from creating the series himself, Aaron Rabin is also taking up an executive producer role, collaborating with Bernstein, Krasinski, Rhys, and Allyson Seeger. Notably, Seeger has a long history of working with Krasinski as the head of Development and Production at their production company, Sunday Night. Krasinski is slated to direct not only the pilot but also additional episodes.

What Have John Krasinski and Matthew Rhys Been Up To These Days?

Recently, admirers of John Krasinski have been treated to a wealth of content, with him being named “Sexiest Man Alive” sparking debate and boosting his IMDB resume due to his work on the series Jack Ryan, along with multiple roles such as director, in the film IF. Additionally, he played Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four in Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness, which has caused a frenzy among his fans. However, it’s worth noting that Krasinski is arguably best recognized for his iconic role as Jim Halpert on The Office.

Regarding Rhys, who is recognized for his roles in “The Americans” with Keri Russell, has been providing his voice for animated “Watchmen” projects and comedy performances as George Carlin in the “SNL” movie “Saturday Night.” He was also seen in “Cocaine Bear,” portrayed Perry Mason in the HBO reboot, and will appear alongside Claire Danes in the Netflix limited series “The Beast in Me.” Noteworthy is that he has recently finished shooting for the BritBox and BBC1 series adaptation of Agatha Christie’s “Towards Zero.” It’s also important to mention that other creatives involved in these projects have impressive resumes. Rabin, for instance, was involved with Disney+ and Marvel Studios’ “Secret Invasion” and did a rewrite on the Bob Odenkirk starrer “Nobody 2“.
