Peacock’s The Copenhagen Test delivers a gripping, atmospheric look at a marriage under strain — and the secrets that could destroy it. The teaser sets a chilling tone: a couple enters therapy, but what begins as a routine session turns into a tense emotional drama with devastating consequences.
The minimalist direction and muted palette evoke classic European cinema, while the dialogue crackles with restrained anger and unspoken truths. There’s something claustrophobic about the way the camera lingers, trapping the characters in their own guilt and paranoia. It’s clear the “test” of the title isn’t just psychological — it’s moral, and perhaps even deadly.
This looks like one of Peacock’s most ambitious originals yet, combining subtle performances with razor-sharp writing to explore what people hide from each other… and from themselves.
