In AppleTV+'s 'Prime Target,' Woodall's protagonist in queer—but you wouldn't know it from watching the trailer!

But the run-up to The White Lotus in 2022 was not a clear upward curve, but more of a wobbly line. In 2019, he appeared in one episode of Holby City, as most budding British actors do, playing the part of a boy whose friend had fallen off a wall (he later reveals that the pair had taken drugs).

Another week, another big espionage-y TV series. This time it’s The White Lotus’ Leo Woodall who steps into the lead role in a new secret services thriller, Prime Target.

In Apple TV+’s new espionage thriller, “Prime Target,” created by Steve Thompson, Cambridge University Ph.D. candidate Edward Brooks (Leo Woodall) is on the cusp of uncovering a new way to view prime numbers.

A brilliant young mathematician becomes an enemy of the deep state in a paranoid new potboiler streaming on Apple TV+.

Leo Woodall stars in a mystery series as a young Cambridge scholar whose theories about prime numbers lead him into a web of international intrigue.
