The first season is set in 1896, when a series of gruesome murders of boy prostitutes has gripped New York City. Newly appointed police commissioner Teddy Roosevelt calls upon Dr. Laszlo Kreizler, a criminal psychiatrist, and John Moore, a newspaper illustrator, to conduct the investigation in secret. Joining them in the probe is Sara Howard, Roosevelt's headstrong secretary, as well as twin brothers Marcus and Lucius Isaacson, both detective sergeants in the New York City Police Department (NYPD).
The team finds opposition within the NYPD, primarily from Captain Connor and the recently retired Chief Byrnes, both of whom are more committed to protecting the reputations of New York's high society than they are to finding the perpetrators of the crimes; as well as from the working poor and lower class citizens who distrust them for being outsiders.
In the second season, set a year later, Sara has opened a private detective agency. She, Kreizler, and Moore – now a New York Times reporter – team up to find the Spanish consul's kidnapped infant daughter. Their investigation puts them on a path of another elusive killer, while showcasing institutional corruption, income inequality, yellow journalism, and the role of women in 1890s society.
Main
- Daniel Brühl as Laszlo Kreizler,[7] an alienist (or psychiatrist)[8] who has focused recently on children suffering from mental illnesses, called upon by his former Harvard classmate Theodore Roosevelt to try to understand the psychology behind grisly child murders. He is Hungarian and comes from a well-off family. He lives alone save for his maid, valet, and stable boy. He has a lame arm, and frequently seeks out the insight of former patients and criminals for help with his investigations and research.
- Luke Evans as John Schuyler Moore,[7] a New York Times cartoonist and illustrator, as well as a society man who attended Harvard with Kreizler and Roosevelt. He lives with his grandmother, and is estranged from his father following the drowning death of his brother. He is handsome and charming, but is an alcoholic and frequenter of brothels, and remains unmarried after his fiancée left him for another man. Like Roosevelt, he has known Sara since she was young.
- Brian Geraghty as Theodore Roosevelt (season 1),[9] the newly appointed commissioner of the NYPD. He is portrayed as commanding respect from certain people, but remains malleable by society's most venerable as well as veteran NYPD officers. He attended Harvard with Kreizler and Moore, both of whom he calls upon to mount a secret, parallel investigation into the child murders. He employs Sara Howard as his secretary, having known her father, and thinks highly of her.
- Robert Ray Wisdom as Cyrus Montrose,[10] Kreizler's valet whom he employed after testifying on Cyrus' behalf during a murder trial
- Douglas Smith as Marcus Isaacson,[11] a young Jewish detective sergeant with the NYPD whom Roosevelt enlists to work with Kreizler, Moore, and Howard. He is Lucius' twin brother, and like his brother, is well versed in science and general crime scene investigation. He becomes involved with a Jewish socialist.
- Matthew Shear as Lucius Isaacson,[12] Marcus' twin brother and another detective sergeant with the NYPD. He is much more cautious and restrained than Marcus, and eager to utilize the latest scientific techniques to solve crimes.
- Q'orianka Kilcher as Mary Palmer (season 1),[10] Kreizler's maid. Like Cyrus, she was taken in by Kreizler after she was acquitted for murder. She is mute and uses sign language to communicate, and has an affection for Kreizler.
- Matt Lintz (season 1) and Dominic Herman-Day (season 2) as Stevie Taggert,[13] a youthful ward and stable boy of Kreizler's who often assists Cyrus, and gets involved in the team's investigation
- Dakota Fanning as Sara Howard,[14] a young society woman who becomes Roosevelt's secretary and the first woman employed by the NYPD. She spent time in a sanitarium after the death of her father, whom Roosevelt and Moore both knew. She is composed and determined to not allow her male colleagues to disparage her. She gets involved with the team as a liaison between Roosevelt and Kreizler and Moore. By the start of the second season, she has left the NYPD and opened her own private detective agency. The character is loosely based upon the story of Isabella Goodwin, New York's first female detective.[15]

| Libby demands to see her daughter, Clara, and her location, which Howard refuses to give before she starts cutting Moore's throat. Her answer distracts Libby and Moore tackles her again, and she is arrested by the police. Byrnes attempts interrogating her with torture tactics, which backfires. He points to Kreizler to try, but he convinces Howard to do it, as Libby knows her. She manages to get the Vanderbilt baby's location from her, by deceiving for her to see Clara. Knox arrives with his men and massacres the police station, escaping with Libby and heading to the Kreizler institute to find Clara. In their search, Knox shoots Marcus in the process, who dies of his injuries. Moore, Byrnes and the police find the baby alive and well. Some time later Sara, Kreizler and the team deduce that Libby found her happiness in her past, and with Clara has finished her ideal family. Together with Byrnes and the police, they converge on Libby's childhood home. Sara, Moore and Kreizler sneak inside and Knox stops them before he is killed by Lucius. Sara and Kreizler convince Libby to give up Clara before Byrnes and the police come in and arrest her. Moore is promoted and learns that Violet is pregnant. Kreizler decides to travel to Vienna with Karen Stratton, and Howard and her detective agency welcome their newest member: Kitty Byrnes. | |||||||

After twenty years of tough struggle and countless failed attempts, I'm delighted that Paramount Television, Anonymous Content and TNT have decided to join forces and bring The Alienist to life in what, based on the material I've read, has the potential to be a faithful and exciting TV series. The array of talent already gathered for the project, for whom I'm pleased to be acting as consultant producer, is deeply impressive: Cary Fukunaga, Eric Roth, Hossein Amini, Gina Gionfriddo, E. Max Frye and the legendary John Sayles seem determined to do what many people said couldn't be done: adapt the story in the Alienist for live action in a way that both preserves the intellectual and historical integrity of the tale, while adding a gripping cinematic dimension to it. It's my hope and expectation that, working together, we can all make this effort meet the standard expected by the very patient fans of the book, whose loyalty I consider a trust that I personally will do everything I can to protect.
