Based on Slaughter’s bestselling book series, “Will Trent” follows a Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent who was abandoned at birth and raised in Atlanta’s foster care system. Now one of the bureau’s top investigators, Will uses his keen observation, emotional intelligence, unconventional perspective, and a deep sense of justice to solve cases. Set in Atlanta, the series delivers twist-driven crime stories and layered character drama.
Disney+ teases Season 4 delivers “more of the compelling mysteries, heartwarming (and sometimes heartbreaking) relationship dynamics, and witty humor that you’ve come to love.” Will remains anchored by his found family at the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, his trusted colleagues, and his dog Betty, as they take on new high-stakes cases.
