STAR WORLD presents an American television police drama series ‘The Closer’ starring 2007 Golden Globe® Best Actress winner Kyra Sedgwick. The show focuses on a tough-talking Atlanta detective, Deputy Police Chief Brenda Leigh Johnson, who moves to LA to head a Priority Homicide Division handling sensitive, high-profile murder cases. Despite a tendency to step on people's toes, Johnson manages to convert even her strongest adversaries with her unique ability to get to the truth. Make sure you tune-in to the exciting new series ‘The Closer’, which premiers this Sunday, October 28th at 10 p.m. on Star World.

Although Brenda Leigh Johnson’s (Kyra Sedgwick) hard-nosed, take-no-prisoners approach to her job rubs her colleagues the wrong way, they know that she will do whatever it takes to uncover the truth. Her reputation as one of the world's best interrogators eventually helps her win over even her toughest critics.

When The Closer debuted in the US, it attracted over 7 million viewers and earned critical acclaim. “The number one reason the show is so successful is, of course, Kyra Sedgwick,” explains executive producer James Duff. “She makes Brenda come alive for people. And since Brenda is what the show is all about, that’s got to be the connection the audience feels the most.”
