Mark Strong as Armitage is a perfect fit! Neuromancer is shaping up to be an incredible adaptation—can’t wait to see it on screen!
- Preparation
In preparation of this show, watch Callum Turner in ‘The Capture’.
Also in the show with Holliday Grainger, Paapa Essiedu and Ron Perlman.
You’re welcome.

Callum basically plays a WW2 era Case in “Masters of the Air”. Has a lot of “terminal overdrive” early on in that series.
