Perry Mason on the street looking to the distance.

The Big Picture Claire Danes now has her foil for her new thriller miniseries. She'll face off against Matthew Rhys in Netflix's The Beast in Me. Deadline reports that Rhys will play a man with a mysterious past who Danes' character becomes obsessed with.

Danes will play successful author Aggie Wiggs, who is still in mourning after the recent death of her son. She's become a recluse, and has been stricken with a serious case of writer's block. However, she soon finds inspiration when she gets a new neighbor - Nile Jarvis , a real estate mogul who may be responsible for the mysterious disappearance of his wife. Aggie is simultaneously fascinated and repulsed by Jarvis, and begins digging into his past.

Who Is Matthew Rhys? Close A native of Wales, Rhys had a number of film and TV roles before breaking out in the family drama Brothers & Sisters. He earned further acclaim on FX's The Americans, playing one half of a couple of deep-cover Soviet spies in 1980s America alongside Kerri Russell, who he later married. Later, he starred on HBO's reimagining of Erle Stanley Gardner's Perry Mason, playing the title character over two seasons.

The Beast in Me is executive produced by Danes, Rotter, Howard Gordon, Antonio Campos, Daniel Pearle, Jodie Foster, and Caroline Baron; as well as Conan O’Brien, Jeff Ross, and David Kissinger for Conaco. It's a reunion for Gordon and Danes, as the former was the showrunner of Homeland, for which she won two Emmys over its eight-season run.
