Apple TV's new series 12 12 12 stars Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan in a heist thriller set in Zurich, premiering on 13 November.

Apple TV's new heist series 12 12 12 premieres on 13 November with two episodes, with subsequent episodes released weekly thereafter. The eight-episode drama stars Anthony Mackie as Jack Strickland, a disgraced FBI agent haunted by a past heist, and Jamie Dornan as Paul Galvin, an American career criminal attempting to start over before being pulled into another high-stakes operation. The pair are locked in a cat-and-mouse game across Europe centred on a daring raid on a bank vault beneath the streets of Zurich.

The series unfolds across three timelines. Each episode focuses on the 12 months of planning required for the heist, the 12 hours during the actual operation, and the 12 days following it. The title refers to these three distinct periods. The heist itself involves the theft of approximately $800m in Swiss notes.

The series was created and executive produced by Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble. The cast also includes Jack Kesy, Kali Reis, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, Agathe Rousselle, Sallie Harmsen and Patrick Fabian.

Apple TV is releasing episodes at 9:00 p.m. ET on Thursday nights, the evening before the official Friday premiere dates. This means the first two episodes will be available from 9:00 p.m. ET on 12 November. Subsequent episodes will release weekly through 25 December. Apple TV+ subscribers can watch the series, and new customers receive a seven-day free trial, though trial users who begin after 13 November may not be able to watch all episodes before subscription charges begin.
