Explosions, undercover missions, and a race against time — Prime Video’s Countdown has all the makings of a blockbuster action movie, delivered in binge-worthy weekly episodes.



On this episode of Director’s Cut Radio, Dan Gutierrez chats with Elliot Knight and Uli Latukefu about joining the series, what drew them to the project, and the fun of making an “American cop show” on their bucket lists. They also reflect on working alongside heavy hitters Jensen Ackles and Eric Dane, whose leadership and camaraderie set the tone on set.



For Knight, it was about balancing dire stakes with moments of fun. For Latukefu, it was about living a dream role while filming in Los Angeles. Together, they give fans a behind-the-scenes look at why Countdown is more than just action — it’s about teamwork, intensity, and chemistry.



Countdown streams Wednesdays on Prime Video, with the explosive finale airing September 3rd.
