Freeman portrays Chris across six night shifts as an urgent response police officer.
The Responder is based on the experiences of officer-turned-writer Tony Schumacher.
He said: “I’m so incredibly fortunate to be writing for a cast as amazing as the one we’ve assembled for The Responder.
“From legends at the top of their game, to young talents who are legends in waiting.
“It’s a writer’s dream come true.”

Rita Tushingham, David Bradley and Warren Brown will also star in the programme.
Executive producer Mona Qureshi said: “The Responder is a completely unique take on modern policing and Tony Schumacher gives us in Chris a heartbreakingly honest portrait of a man coming undone by the pressures around him.
“We’re so excited to see Martin Freeman in this extraordinary role and for [director] Tim Mielants to bring the night-streets of Liverpool to vivid life.”
