David Mitchell Talks Bringing BBC Hit ‘Ludwig’ to America
The beloved British comedian sits down with THR to talk about the BBC’s biggest scripted show of 2024, in which he stars as puzzler-turned-detective John Taylor, set to air on BritBox.
David Mitchell is a little coy while discussing how he onboarded Ludwig. “As far as I know,” he tells The Hollywood Reporter, “it was thought up with me in mind!”
It was a no-brainer for creator Mark Brotherhood when he got wind that Mitchell was looking for a detective role.
