74th Primetime Emmy Awards, nominee Jake Lacy introduced the full-length trailer for, Peacock’s upcoming true-crime saga about the Broberg family kidnappings starring the actor as the friendly-yet-dubious neighbor Robert Berchtold.The latest look at the limited series shows how Berchtold charmed and manipulated his way into the Brobergs family before upending their lives multiple times, most notably by kidnapping their daughter, Jan (Hendrix Yancey and Mckenna Grace), twice over several years. He also created a wedge between Jan’s parents, Mary Ann (Anna Paquin) and Bob (Colin Hanks), who were both enchanted by their neighbor. “No one thinks that their best friend is a monster. But he has all the hallmarks of a psychopathic personality,” says FBI Agent Peter Walsh, who is portrayed here by Austin Stowell.
