Apple TV’s new heist drama “12 12 12” begins streaming this week, with early episodes available for subscribers who know where to look.
The series officially premieres Friday, November 13, 2026, with two episodes. But Apple TV has a pattern of posting new episodes at 9:00 p.m. ET the night before the official release date, meaning viewers can watch starting Thursday, November 12, 2026, at 9:00 p.m. ET.
Despite its title, the show does not run 12 episodes. Season 1 totals eight episodes. After the two-episode launch, one new episode will release every Friday through December 25, 2026.
The series was created and executive produced by Dudi Appleton and Jim Keeble. Its structure mirrors its name, with each episode unfolding across three timelines: the 12 months spent planning a heist, the 12 hours of the heist itself, and the 12 days that follow.
“The series follows a disgraced FBI agent (Mackie) and an American career criminal (Dornan) as they play a zero-sum game of cat and mouse across Europe. At the center of it all is the daring, epic raid on a bank vault deep beneath the streets of Zurich.”
Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan lead the cast, with Mackie playing the disgraced FBI agent and Dornan the career criminal squaring off against him across Europe.
Watching requires an Apple TV subscription. New subscribers get a seven-day free trial, and the service’s single ad-free plan runs $14.99 a month. A bundle combining Apple TV with Peacock is also available starting at $14.99 a month.
