The Recruit Creator Alexi Hawley Discusses Working With Doug Liman on Series

[This interview contains spoilers for the last episode of The Recruit]

Created by Alexi Hawley, Netflix’s latest action-packed series, The Recruit, is a refreshing break from tradition when it comes to gritty spy series. Instead of a confident, seasoned spy as the central character, The Recruit has Owen Hendricks (Noah Centineo) leading the way. Owen is a fresh-faced CIA lawyer, who only recently graduated from law school, who gets caught up in some dangerous stuff. Namely, Max Meladze (Laura Haddock), a former CIA asset who is threatening to expose the agency unless they exonerate her of a serious crime she committed.

Ahead of the premiere of The Recruit, Collider sat down with Alexi Hawley to discuss how he came up with this distinctly millennial series, how he got Doug Liman involved with the project, the casting process, what changed and evolved once the series started filming, and how he got Nathan Fillion for that very fun cameo.
