Hostage

Suranne Jones and Julie Delpy in Hostage.

Taken gets a feminist twist in Netflix’s new limited series Hostage. This time, the U.K.’s prime minister—a woman made of iron like Thatcher—channels her inner Liam Neeson to bring that “I will find you, and I will kill you” energy to the screen. France’s president—also a woman (if only real life were so well cast)—is ensnared in a parallel blackmail plot. This action-packed political thriller stars Suranne Jones and Julie Delpy. —Carolina de Armas
