Look for action and intrigue on the new action series Missing (Thursdays, 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, ABC). Or so the three macho men of the show, Cliff Curtis, Nick Eversman and Adriano Giannini tell us in the video below.

The trio rounds out the cast of Missing, which stars Ashley Judd as Rebecca Winstone, an ex-CIA operative searching for her kidnapped son Michael (Eversman). Rebecca is stepping on the toes of the current CIA dude, Agent Dax Miller (Curtis) and she has also enlisted the help of Interpol hottie Giancarlo Rossi (Giannini).

If Adriano Giannini‘s last name sounds familiar, that’s because his father is legendary actor Giancarlo Giannini, who modern audiences probably know best for his role as tragically-doomed Inspector Renaldo Pazzi in Hannibal.

It can’t be a coincidence that the name of the character that Adriano plays is Giacarlo. Funny? You bet, though he laughs and adds that he hasn’t broken the news to his dad yet.

Other children of actors say it’s tough emerging from the shadow of their famous parents, but Giannini swears it’s only been a plus for his career.

Producers have a lot of confidence in this series. Rather than shooting a pilot and hoping it becomes a hit gradually, the network order 10 episodes of Missing right out of the gate and went immediately into production.

Though following a kidnap case could easily become tiresome, the men promise there will be a big payoff and fans will want to keep watching when, and if, Michael is rescued.

No kidding. Three hunky guys and one sexy, hot mama…yep, that sounds like a genuine hit to me.
