Pete has such a quietness to him as a character, but there's always a lot going on, and the wheels are always turning. He's thinking about how to navigate this crime as a former detective, but also how to navigate this fractured relationship and build a relationship back with his son," as per Netflix.
'The Whisper Man' will be released globally on Netflix on August 28.
