Max Riemelt & Ali Tavakol on Sleeping Dog (2023)

The new German Netflix crime drama Sleeping Dog tells the story of former policeman Mike Atlas (played by Max Riemelt), currently living on the streets. When a prison death raises questions related to a formerly closed case, Mike finds himself on the path to uncovering the truth behind the connection and its resulting mystery. Episode 1 got Max naked as his character took a shower after sneaking into his old house. He showed rear nudity for the sequence, before he was ultimately awakened by his estranged daughter. Guest star Ali Tavakol also showed his chest in an open shirt for his role as Mussa, the prisoner who is found dead in his cell, as the series' inciting death.
