All About Leo Woodall's Latest Thrilling TV Series 'Prime Target'
Since appearing in the second season of The White Lotus, Leo Woodall's star has continuously been on the rise, and was undoubtedly bolstered by his lead role in Netflix's One Day, where he starred opposite Ambika Mod as Dexter Mayhew.
This year, the actor shows no signs of slowing down as he's set to star alongside Renée Zellweger in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy which will premiere on February 13.

'On the verge of a major breakthrough, if he (Edward) succeeds in finding a pattern in prime numbers, he will hold the key to every computer in the world. Soon, he begins to realise an unseen enemy is trying to destroy his idea before it’s even born, which throws him into the orbit of Taylah Sanders, a female NSA agent (played by Quintessa Swindell) who’s been tasked with watching and reporting on mathematicians' behaviour.
