Plot Synopsis
Based on Guido Maria Brera's 2014 book "I Diavoli," DEVILS is a one-hour financial thriller series that follows Massimo Ruggero, the charismatic yet ruthless Head of Trading at NYL, one of the world's most important investment banks, and his mentor, NYL's CEO Dominic Morgan. After Dominic appoints another colleague over Massimo following a bitter promotion battle, Massimo finds himself named prime suspect in a murder investigation. Fighting to clear his name, Massimo becomes involved in an intercontinental financial war and is forced to choose between supporting Dominic or going up against him. DEVILS had its U.S. premiere on Wednesday, October 7, 2020 at 8pm ET/PT on The CW.
Season 2 of DEVILS made its U.S. debut on Tuesday, August 16, 2022 at 9pm ET/PT on The CW. It's 2016 and Massimo Ruggero, as CEO of NYL, has brought Chinese investors onto the board, and with his new Head of Trading, Wu Zhi, need to win big on the Brexit referendum. But Dominic Morgan founds a SPAC aimed to acquire tech companies that the Chinese are targeting, and, after hiring a brilliant, odd young woman, Nadya, he warns Massimo about the Chinese: a new geo-political data war between China and the West has begun. Will Massimo believe him? Massimo and his team vow to discover the truth about Brexit's tragic aftermath. While trying to convince Massimo that the Chinese are behind it, Dominic tries to stop NYL and its Chief Strategy Officer, Cheng Liwei, from acquiring a social media app, another pawn in the data war. Massimo also starts uncovering evidence about a secret Chinese surveillance program through data trafficking.
