Based on the 2009 novel by Brown — a prequel to The Da Vinci Code, which was turned into a blockbuster film franchise starring Tom Hanks — The Lost Symbol starred Succession alum Ashley Zukerman as Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon (the role Hanks played in the film series). In the series, Langdon was recruited by the CIA to crack the code on a number of deadly puzzles after his mentor goes missing.
Eddie Izzard costarred as Langdon’s mentor Peter Solomon, with Valorie Curry, Beau Knapp, Rick Gonzalez and Sumalee Montano rounding out the supporting cast.
The Lost Symbol debuted on Peacock in September with a 10-episode freshman season. The season (and now series) finale aired on Nov. 18.
