"Copperhead" is directed by John Swab, known for "King Ivory." The screenplay was co-written by Chad Feehan, a showrunner for a "Yellowstone" spinoff series, and J. Todd Scott. The plot follows an undercover drug deal that goes awry due to a violent incident, forcing a veteran detective to team up with a young federal agent to uncover a conspiracy within their elite task force.
