Simu Liu, who is popular as the Marvel superhero Shang-Chi from the 2021 movie, will be next seen as a spy agent in The Copenhagen Test, a sci-fi thriller series which is coming to India this December. What happens when someone hacks your brain? That’s the challenge Liu‘s character, Alexander Hale, will be facing in the Peacock original TV show. Hale is a Chinese-American spy agent who is on a mission and must find ways to keep himself alive, all while dealing with a brain hack.
The sci-fi spy thriller will premiere on Peacock in the US on December 27, just a day prior to its India release on JioHotstar (accessible via OTTplay Premium) on December 28, 2025. The series consists of eight episodes that will drop all at once on the same date.
While Simu Liu will be seen in the lead as Alexander Hale, other pivotal cast members include Melissa Barrera (as Michelle), Sinclair Daniel (as Parker) and Brian d'Arcy James (as John Moira). Mark O'Brien and Kathleen Chalfant are also part of the cast, along with Sara Amini, Saul Rubinek and Hannah Cruz in supporting roles.
Alexander Hale is a first-generation intelligent analyst who makes a tough decision during a mission in Belarus that hugely impacts his future. In the present day, he discovers his brain has been hacked, giving unknown perpetrators access to everything he sees and hears. Caught between his secret agency, The Orphanage and the hacker, Hale must maintain a constant performance to convince those watching him that he's compromised, while secretly working for his agency to identify the culprits.
The 2-minute video begins with Simu Liu entering a room where a woman interrogates him. He is asked, "How long have you willingly been committing treason against the United States government?”, but he's seen as absolutely lost to that question. The woman soon reveals that someone unknown is watching and listening through him. The woman further informs him that a strange Wi-Fi signal is streaming from his head, meaning he's been hacked. Despite his constant denial about the hack, the woman points him out as a traitor to the nation.
Now, Alexander Hale has two choices: the government can attempt to extract everything that the unknown hackers have gotten into, or he can be used as a way to trick the hackers. The question is how much he can trust his shadowy agency?
