James Purefoy ("Rome") stars as Teddy Rist, a successful tycoon whose life is forever changed after rescuing a young boy during a hurricane in the Nigerian town he was visiting. Spontaneous and impulsive, Rist and quickly decides to channel his passion, power, and money into helping those in need. A man who has everything but feels nothing, Rist keeps his adrenaline pumping by putting his business acumen and money-making skills to good use by bargaining with the self-righteous as he makes deals with drug barons and trading with the nefarious. Jesse L. Martin (NBC's "Law and Order") plays Philip Maidstone, Teddy's business partner and friend, and Neve Campbell ("Party of Five," "Burn Up") plays Philip's wife Olivia, who also runs the charitable foundation set up by the two billionaires. Lindy Booth ("The 4400"), Michael Kenneth Williams ("The Wire"), Krista Allen ("The Starter Wife"), and newcomer James Albrecht also star. See less
