FX’s Under the Banner of Heaven is a limited series inspired by the true crime bestseller by Jon Krakauer.
A devout detective’s faith is tested as he investigates a brutal murder that seems to be connected to an esteemed Utah family’s spiral into LDS fundamentalism and their distrust in the government.
Andrew Garfield will star as “Detective Pyre,” an LDS elder who is committed to his Church and family but begins to question some of the Church's teachings through his contact with a suspected murderer. Daisy Edgar-Jones stars as “Brenda,” a young faithful Mormon who is the victim of a brutal murder.
