Sweetpea | Official Teaser Featuring Ella Purnell | STARZ
Here's a first look at the hit Sky/Starz series Sweetpea starring Fallout's Ella Purnell.
Written and published by Pure writer Kirstie Swain, Sweetpea follows Rhiannon Lewis, who doesn’t make much of an impression: people walk past her on the street without a second glance, she’s constantly being passed over for promotions at work, the man she likes won’t commit, and her father is seriously ill. But when she’s pushed over the edge and out of control, the wallflower is gone, replaced by a young woman capable of anything.
The series, which debuts in October, is based on the cult novel by CJ Skuse. Starz came on board as U.S. co-producer last month, with Power of the Dog creator See-Saw Films producing through its new Fanboy label led by Patrick Walters.
