The broadcaster confirmed that the "gripping" original crime drama, produced by Clapperboard Studios, is due to air on 5 in 2027.
Rooney, best known as Rae Earl in My Mad Fat Diary and recently seen competing in the latest series of The Celebrity Traitors, plays DS Katie Salter, a detective whose quiet local policing life is upended when she is thrust into a high-pressure murder investigation.
Rooney's co-lead in the new 5 drama is Scanlan, who plays Paul O'Donnell in Guy Ritchie and Tom Hardy's Paramount+ crime series MobLand. His other recent work includes A Working Man, Gangs of London and How to Get to Heaven from Belfast.
The setup is deliberately strange in the series and as per the synopsis: "Four people sit around a table seemingly set for a dinner party, except they are all dead. The only clue is a scorpion crawling out of one of the victim's mouths."
5 describes Salter as "not your stereotypical damaged and tormented TV detective", being smart, diligent and committed to her family.

The synopsis continues: "Salter’s measured, grounded approach clashes with Conway’s all-consuming dedication to the job. At first, the two detectives appear fundamentally incompatible.
The confirmed cast also includes Lois Chimimba (Coldwater), Jonny Lavelle (Down Cemetery Road) and Ashley McGuire (This Country).
