Butterfly (2025 TV series)
Updated: 12/10/2025, 5:15:01 PM Wikipedia source
Butterfly is an American spy thriller television series created by Steph Cha and Ken Woodruff for Amazon Prime Video. It is based on the Boom! Studios graphic novel of the same name created by Arash Amel and written by Marguerite Bennett. Primarily set in South Korea, the series follows former U.S. intelligence operative David Jung (Daniel Dae Kim) and his estranged daughter Rebecca (Reina Hardesty) as they are hunted by the spy organization "Caddis", exploring familial tensions and betrayal amidst the backdrop of global espionage. Woodruff serves as showrunner while Kim, in addition to starring, executive produces Butterfly through his production company 3AD, which developed the series with Amazon MGM Studios. After consulting Amel and Boom! Studios, Kim and 3AD changed the source material's Western setting to South Korea with an international cast and Korean crew, as they sought to explore Asian American themes through the series. Butterfly premiered on Prime Video on August 13, 2025. It received generally favourable reviews from critics, with praise directed at its action, performances, setting, and family dynamics, although its plot and writing received some criticism. In October 2025, the series was canceled after one season, ending it on a cliffhanger.

Former spy David Jung resurfaces after learning that his daughter Rebecca has become an assassin for Caddis, a private intelligence agency he co-founded prior to faking his death nine years ago. After interfering and failing to make contact with Rebecca during her mission to assassinate Russian ambassador Mikhail Karpov in Seoul, David tells his wife Eunju to go into hiding as he cannot bring himself to leave Rebecca again. Caddis director Juno Lund instructs Rebecca and her partner Atwood to track down the interloper. David sets a trap and reveals himself to Rebecca, who knocks him out for abandoning her and informs Juno of his survival. When Atwood attempts to kill David on Juno's orders, Rebecca shoots and kills Atwood.

David takes his family to a safe house in Busan and has his contact Yong Shik forge new passports so they can travel to extradition-free Vietnam.

Gun kills Yong Shik and locates the Jung family. Desperate to prove himself to Juno, Oliver leads a Caddis strike team, along with Gun, to raid the safe house. David and Rebecca kill the Caddis agents, wound Gun, and capture Oliver, who reveals that Juno was the one who betrayed David to the terrorists that threatened Rebecca nine years ago. David calls Juno and forces her to listen as he shoots Oliver.
