Caught in the act on Netflix: romantic comedy starring Gina Rodriguez and Tom Ellis

Set in cool New York City, Prise au jeu introduces Mack, played by Gina Rodriguez (Jane the Virgin), a witty sports journalist who, along with her best friend Adam(Damon Wayans Jr.) and their group of friends, has devised unstoppable seduction strategies. Their game, based on elaborate seduction scenarios and strict rules, has enabled them to enjoy one-night stands, away from any form of emotional attachment. However, the golden rule remains clear: seduction games don't lead to real relationships.

The dynamic changes radically when Mack meets and falls head over heels in love with Nick(Tom Ellis, best known for his role in Lucifer), an irresistibly charming war correspondent. This unexpected encounter forces her to question the very foundations of their rules of the game. As the lines between work, dating, love and friendship begin to blur, Mack is confronted with the reality of feelings and the distinction between a one-night stand and true love at first sight.
