This heist drama has it all: a motley crew of thieves, revenge, family drama and, best of all, the meticulous planning of a big score to break into an impenetrable vault. It doesn’t hurt that the mind behind it, Leo Pap, is played by Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), a master of the calm and cunning. The story of Netflix‘s Kaleidoscope unfolds in an unusual way: Viewers can watch each of the first seven episodes, which cover 25 years of scheming, in any order; the finale will always be the actual robbery. “It’s not only a heist; it’s a setup,” Esposito explains. Pap has a vendetta against the vault’s owner, wealthy Roger Salas (Rufus Sewell), who wronged him. But, the actor warns, “Nothing good ever comes behind vengeful thinking and vengeful action.” (He’s played enough ruthless characters to know.) Salas’ protégée Hannah Kim (Tati Gabrielle) is also key.

Netflix has picked up the heist drama “Jigsaw” to series, with Giancarlo Esposito among the ensemble cast.
The series from creator Eric Garcia is loosely inspired by the real-life story where $70 billion in bonds went missing in downtown Manhattan during Hurricane Sandy. With a plot spanning 24 years, the series centers around the largest heist ever attempted and the vengeance, scheming, loyalties and betrayals that surround it.
Netflix described the eight-episode series as one that “builds intrigue and suspense” by taking a “non-linear approach to storytelling in a way where viewers are in control.”
In addition to Esposito, the cast also includes Paz Vega, Rufus Sewell, Tati Gabrielle, Peter Mark Kendall, Rosaline Elbay, Jai Courtney and Niousha Noor. Read full character descriptions below.
Garcia is creator, showrunner and executive producer. Jose Padilha will direct the first two episodes.
