The trailer for The Outlaws was released earlier this month and featured a group of seven people arrested for several minor crimes. These crimes included forging a couple of signatures on checks to prostitution, mainly for money. As these crimes were non-violent, the group was sentenced to community service.

They were ordered to clean an abandoned community center and were responsible for bringing it back into shape. However, all the hard work takes an unfortunate turn when they come across a bag full of money hidden on the ceiling of the center.

The series follows the group's misadventures as they decide if they should or shouldn't keep the money. What they don't know is that the money belongs to a crime group who will hunt down and kill whoever steals from them. The series leans heavily on comedy to turn the situation into a fun one.

The series has already aired outside the US on the BBC and was renewed for a second season last year in November. Executive producers of the series include Luke Alkin, Kenton Allen, and Matthew Justice, as well as BBC One and Amazon Studios as the co-producers.

Catch The Outlaws streaming on Prime Video from April 1.
