2024 has already seen lots of exciting new limited series. The latest one that has gotten a lot of attention recently is The Veil. With the show finally premiering, some are wondering if The Veil is streaming on Netflix.

This is a fair question given that Netflix is the home of many popular ongoing and limited series. What’s more, this series’ thrilling premise is right up the alley of the streaming giant.

All You Need to Know About FX's The Veil

The Veil (not to be confused with the Korean series of the same name) is a brand-new action-thriller written by Steven Knight, the creator of hit shows like Peaky Blinders and The Detectives.

Playing the lead role is Elisabeth Moss, the actress who is best known for playing June Osborne in The Handmaid’s Tale and Peggy Olson in Mad Men.

As for its story, The Veil is described as a “deadly game of truth and lies” as it follows two women, one of whom has a secret that the other must reveal to potentially save thousands of lives.

Given its spy-thriller premise, the show features a globetrotting story that sees the two main characters travel to Istanbul, Paris, and London.

While it’s an American production, the main character Imogen Salter is an agent of the UK’s MI6, and she must work together with agents from the CIA and France’s DGSE.
