Netflix never fails to deliver, no matter the occasion. But even without one, it is an all-rounder at all times. Yet, since the curtain-raiser on the new year, the streaming giant has grown a visibly soft corner for crime dramas. And as the OTT platform rearranges and reshuffles its deck for a year of remembrance, it is banking on true star power for its next gripping storyline, bringing Matthew Law and Y’lan Noel to join forces.

For those wondering which investigative thriller Law and Noel are teaming up for, here is a rundown on all that is known so far.

According to Netflix’s official website, Matthew Law and Y’lan Noel are gearing up to star in a fresh, gritty crime thriller, Nemesis, on Netflix. The creator of Power Universe, Courtney A. Kemp, and Tani Marole are co-creating the show in a new creative partnership with the former and the streaming mogul. As per the official synopsis, Nemesis follows two men on diverse sides of the law. It is “the tale of what happens when an unstoppable force (an expert criminal) meets an immovable object (a brilliant police detective).”

Nemesis begins with the “subversion” of the heist genre. However, it soon turns out to be a do-or-die scenario, coupled with household politics, and high-stakes suspense, culminating in a journey of what “drives us, sustains us, and ultimately destroys us.” Mario Van Peebles is set to direct the first two episodes of the series. He serves as an executive producer alongside Chris Selak and Philipp Barnett.

While the stars of the show are already in the clear, who else is in the cast of Netflix’s Nemesis?

Netflix has stacked up its content library with the countdown of more than one crime drama in 2025, and each seems to ignite a frenzy far bigger than the last. According to the streaming mogul, Matthew Law joins Nemesis as Isaiah Stiles and Y’lan Noel as Coltrane Wilder. Cleopatra Coleman portrays Ebony Wilder, Tre Hale plays Darren Stroman, Domenick Lombardozzi takes on the role of Dave Cerullo, Jonnie Park plays Chris Choi, and Ariana Guerra portrays Yvette Cruz.

For those curious if Nemesis joins Netflix’s spring catalog of thriller outings, it probably does not. As for now, the streamer has not confirmed a release date. However, the series is currently in production and being filmed in Los Angeles. So, to get the final details on the upcoming Netflix series starring Law and Noel, stay tuned for further updates.
