Jeff Russo (Fargo, Star Trek: Discovery & Picard, Legion, The Night Of, The Umbrella Academy) is the composer of the new Amazon original series The Consultant. The show is created by Tony Basgallop (Servant) and stars Christoph Waltz, Nat Wolff, Brittany O’Grady and Aimee Carrero. The comedic thriller is based on Bentley Little’s 2015 novel of the same title and centers on a consultant who is hired to improve the business at an App-based gaming company and makes its employees experience new demands and challenges that put everything into question. Basgallop & Waltz are also executive producing the MGM Television and Amazon Studios production with Steve Stark (The Handmaid’s Tale) and Andrew Mittman (Wednesday), as well as Matt Shakman (WandaVision, The Great) who also directed the first episode. The Consultant will premiere next Friday, February 24 on Prime Video.
