OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS

PARTNERS IN CRIME!

Grief-stricken after the loss of his young wife and unborn child, ex-Navy SEAL-turned-detective MARTIN RIGGS (Clayne Crawford, “Rectify”) moves to California to “start over” at the LAPD. He’s paired up with ROGER MURTAUGH (Emmy Award nominee Damon Wayans, “My Wife and Kids,”), who’s just coming back to the job after a near-fatal heart attack. Riggs’ penchant for diving headfirst into the line of fire immediately clashes with Murtaugh’s prudent, by-the-book technique. It’s clear from the moment they meet, this partnership could be lethal. But by the time their first investigation ends, Riggs realizes he may have found something worth living for – a partner and friend like Murtaugh. And even Murtaugh figures this arrangement might just work out after all. If only Riggs doesn’t get them killed first.

“Lethal Weapon” is starring Damon Wayans, Sr. as Roger Murtaugh, Clayne Crawford as Martin Riggs, Jordana Brewster as Dr. Maureen “Mo” Cahill, Kevin Rahm as Captain Brooks Avery, Keesha Sharp as Trish Murtaugh.

Guest Cast are Floriana Lima as Miranda Riggs, Toni Trucks as Det. Maria Torez, Sprague Grayden as Det. Genie Babcock, Gino Anthony Pesi as Daryl Hennicky, Peter Cortes as Oscar Alvarez, Adrian Bustamante as Uni, Tony Plana as Ronnie Delgado.
