Stars channing tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt have been working on a series together. The show 'Comrade Detective' was originally called 'Iron Fisting'. The show is a comedic spoof on two cops during the Cold War hysteria. 'Comrade Detective' will only feature Tatum and Gordon-Levitt's voices as the characters are to be portrayed onscreen by Romanian actors. Brian Gatewood and Alex Tanaka wrote the script for the show.

'Comrade Detective' is set during the Cold War

The cop show is self-described as an old forgotten TV program that was created during the 1980s.

It was created by the Romanian Government and was the most popular and longest running TV show its time. It is extremely anti-capitalist and unfortunately lost popularity after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The show promises to be both comedic and adventurous as it follows two detectives.

The TV show is to focus on two cops, Detective Gregor Anghel and Iosef Baciu. The Detectives are investigating the death of another office, Nikita Ionesco. As they begin to uncover the truth of Ionesco's death the pair uncover a plot to destroy their country. The plot is fueled by capitalist enemies of the state and is a race against time for the comedic duo to save their homeland.

The show has some unusual main characters

'Comrade Detective' has been in production for a while now. The TV is set to feature Romanian actors, Florin Piersic Jr. and Corneliu Ulici. However, the show has a strange twist as the voices of these actors will be dubbed over. Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt will lend their voices and essentially become the Main Characters of the show.

According to The Christian Post, English dubbing of Romanian TV was common and the cast has created a comedy cop show using this technique.

Other members of the voice cast include Oscar winners Kin Basinger and Mahershala Ali, alongside the likes of Tracy Letts, Richard Jenkins, and comedian Bo Burnham. Amazon Executive Joe Lewis has stated that the show is compelling, brilliant and that the heroes of Gregor and Iosef are exactly the kind of hero the world needs.

Tatum has been working alongside show creators and director Rhys Thomas as an executive producer.

'Comrade Detectives' has been given a worldwide release date of August 4. TV lovers can look forward to the hilarious duo of Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt as they star as fellow detectives. The show will be released on Amazon's show streaming platform, Amazon Videos.
