Prime Target is a conspiracy thriller created and executive produced by Sherlock and Doctor Who writer Steve Thompson. New Regency and Ridley Scott's Scott Free Productions produce for Apple TV+.

Leo Woodall stars as Edward Brooks, a brilliant young math postgraduate on the verge of a major breakthrough.

"If he succeeds in finding a pattern in prime numbers, he will hold the key to every computer in the world. Soon, he begins to realize an unseen enemy is trying to destroy his idea before it's even born, which throws him into the orbit of Taylah Sanders (Quintessa Swindell), a female NSA agent who's been tasked with watching and reporting on mathematicians' behavior. Together, they start to unravel the troubling conspiracy Edward is at the heart of," an official synopsis reads.
