Prime Video is adding another crime thriller to its slate, as the streaming service has given a straight-to-series order to the Texas-set suspense series Calamities.

Set in the Lone Star state, the new series will follow a chain reaction of events after a drug deal goes wrong. According to Variety, the series will be written by David Weil, who also serves as showrunner, executive producer, and director. He previously created and led the period dark comedy thriller Hunters, a Nazi-hunting drama starring Al Pacino and Logan Lerman that blended pulpy action with historical themes, for Prime Video. And Glen Powell will also executive produce, via Barnstorm.
