‘Poker Face’: Natasha Lyonne Is On The Run With A Preternatural Lie Detecting Ability In New Trailer For Rian Johnson’s Peacock Series

Natasha Lyonne has an uncanny ability to tell when people are lying in the upcoming Peacock series, Poker Face.

The series hails from Knives Out and The Last Jedi helmer Rian Johnson. Throughout the 10-episode series, Lyonne’s Charlie shows off that preternatural ability by using it to solve crimes.

Among those crimes is a mysterious murder involving a host of characters, including Lil Rel Howery as a town sheriff who insists there was no foul play. In a new trailer released Thursday Lyonne explains “there’s nothing mystical” about her lie detecting abilities, adding: “I can just tell.”

After someone seeks her out to use her abilities (likely for nefarious purposes), Charlie goes on the run — but she continues to solve crimes along the way. The new trailer is linked below.
