FX networks unveiled Tuesday the trailer for American actor Andrew Garfield's new TV series “Under the Banner of Heaven”.
The seven-episode limited series follows the events that led to the 1984 murder of Brenda Wright Lafferty (played by Daisy Edgar-Jones) and her baby daughter in a suburb in Salt Lake Valley, Utah.
Garfield plays Detective Jeb Pyre, who was tasked with investigating the murders.
As he tracks the events that transpired within the Lafferty family, he uncovers buried truths about the origins of the LDS religion and the violent consequences of unyielding faith.

The trailer featured Detective Pyre in tears as he walks through the grisly murder scene where bloody handprints lay on the walls and baby toys are still strewn about.
It also stars Sam Worthington, Denise Gough, Wyatt Russell, Billy Howle, Gil Birmingham, Adelaide Clemens, Rory Culkin, Seth Numrich, Chloe Pirrie, and Sandra Seacat.
Oscar-winner Dustin Lance Black created the series, inspired by the true-crime bestseller from Jon Krakauer.
Black serves as a showrunner and executive producer. Other EPs include Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, and Anna Culp for Imagine Television, Jason Bateman and Michael Costigan of Aggregate Films, and David Mackenzie and Gillian Berrie.
The series is produced by FX Productions.
“Under the Banner of Heaven” premieres on April 28 on Hulu.
