Sky and Starz have dropped the trailer for their Ella Purnell-headlined serial killer series Sweetpea, which stars the Yellowjackets actor as an overlooked wallflower who develops a taste for murder.
The six-episode TV series is based on the 2017 novel by C.J. Skuse about Rhiannon Lewis, a seemingly average woman with a secret life as a serial killer, and also stars Nicôle Lecky as Julia, Jon Pointing as Craig, Calam Lynch as AJ, Leah Harvey as Marina, Jeremy Swift as Norman and Dustin Demri-Burns as Jeff. Check out the trailer below…
Rhiannon Lewis doesn’t make much of an impression – people walk past her in the street without a second glance. She’s continually overlooked for a promotion at work, the guy she likes won’t commit, and her dad is really, really sick. Then everything in her life turns upside down. Rhiannon is pushed over the edge and loses control. Suddenly the wallflower is gone, and in its place is a young woman capable of anything… Rhiannon’s life transforms as she steps into a new, intoxicating power, but can she keep her killer secret?
Sweetpea streams on Sky in the U.K. and Starz in the U.S. from October 10th.
