"Raised in total seclusion in the remote woods of Eastern Europe, 15-year-old Hanna has spent her entire young life training to fight those who hunt her and her mercenary father, Erik Heller. Her survivalist skills are finally tested when she and Erik are separated upon their discovery by a rogue CIA operative, Marissa Wiegler and her team of agents," a synopsis said.
David Farr, who co-wrote the original feature with Seth Lochhead, penned the Amazon adaptation.
The show -- which was announced a year ago -- was filmed in Germany, Hungary, Slovakia, Morocco, Spain and the U.K.
The Killing ended in 2014 after four seasons.
