INSPIRED BY ACTUAL EVENTS....UNFORTUNATELY.
AUSTRALIAN ORIGINAL "WHO THE HELL IS HAMISH?" PREMIERES THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10 EXCLUSIVELY ON PARAMOUNT+
November 4, 2026 - Paramount+ has announced the Australian original drama, Who the Hell is Hamish?, will premiere globally on Paramount+, with all episodes available to binge on Thursday, December 10.
The trailer and key art are also now available for the six-episode drama which features an all-star ensemble cast led by Dominic Cooper and Claire van der Boom.
Inspired by the true story of an industrial fraudster and the victims who banded together to take him down, Who The Hell Is Hamish? follows Hamish McLaren (Dominic Cooper) as he returns to Australia from Canada, not as a man in exile but as a man surveying his old domain, setting his sights on Bec (Claire van der Boom), a recently divorced single mum with three sons and access to a significant family trust. But when Bec begins to notice discrepancies in Hamish's story and some strange behaviour, what starts as personal doubt quickly widens into something far larger: a pattern of deception spanning continents and suspected of leaving a debt of more than $70 million in his wake.
The series stars Cooper and van der Boom alongside Simone Kessell (Yellowjackets), William McKenna (Heartbreak High), Kate Jenkinson (Wentworth), Miah Madden (My Brilliant Career), Fraser Anderson (Audrey), Yasmin Kassim (FING!), Doris Younane (Five Bedrooms), Maria Angelico (Strife), Marta Dusseldorp (Bay of Fires), John Howard (Colin from Accounts), Andrea Moor (Spit), Joel Jackson (Peter Allen), Remy Hii (Spiderman: Far From Home), Damien Garvey (The Survivors), Jack LaTorre (Kid Snow) and introducing Harvey Bowen.
Written and created by five-time AACTA-winning writer and producer Adam Zwar (Austin, Mr Black), directed by multi-award-winning film and television director Jeffrey Walker (The Artful Dodger, Apple Cider Vinegar) and produced by Emmy(R) and BAFTA(R) Award-winning production company Hoodlum Entertainment and CBS Studios.
A Hoodlum Entertainment and CBS Studios Production for Paramount+. Major production investment from Screen Australia. Financed with support from Paramount Australia and New Zealand. Supported by the Queensland Government through Screen Queensland's Production Attraction Strategy and Post, Digital and Visual Effects (PDV) Incentive, and the Local Government through the City of Gold Coast's Screen Attraction Program.
