Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul star Jonathan Banks is going to be back on our TV screens soon in upcoming psychological thriller Constellation.
He's appeared in a hell of a lot of things over the years, but you'll best know him as no-nonsense former cop Mike Ehrmantraut.
Now he'll be back on our TVs next month in mysterious sci-fi thriller Constellation created by screenwriter Peter Harness.
Harness has been responsible for the third and fourth seasons of crime drama Wallander, while also writing episodes for shows such as McMafia, City of Vice and Case Histories.

Focusing on astronaut Jo (Noomi Rapace), who returns from a disastrous mission to space with parts of her life mysteriously missing, Constellation deals with her attempts to figure out exactly what happened to her.
That's where Banks' character Henry comes in, with the trailer for the psychological thriller setting him up as a possible expert who might be able to shed some light on Jo's peril.
"I invented a machine we took into space, and I saw something. But it seems like it doesn't want to be seen," his character says ominously in the trailer.
As for what exactly he saw and what we've got to deal with in Constellation, that is a mystery we'll spend the series trying to puzzle out.

Part psychological thriller, part conspiracy series, the Apple TV show teases us with shots of exploding spaceships, cryptic utterances and Jo putting together the pieces of her life.
It's not the first time Peter Harness has tackled space as a subject matter, as he's also written episodes for Doctor Who during Peter Capaldi's run as The Doctor.
That bodes well for those looking forward to seeing Jonathan Banks' latest TV appearance.
Many fans were thrilled to see the 76-year-old actor back on our screens, with one writing: "This look really good! And it's fantastic to see Jonathan Banks again."

Another said: "We needed more high-production value sci-fi before Apple TV came around. Pretty much every single series they've put out has been great, excited for this one."
For those looking to check it out, you'll have to sign up to Apple TV, with prices starting at £8.99 a month after a seven-day free trial.
The first three episodes of Constellation will release on Apple TV on 21 February, with the rest of the episodes releasing weekly until 27 March.
