RELATED STORIES

Actors from a bunch of your favorite prestige projects are about to join forces in a new one.

Andrew Scott (Fleabag) and Dominic West (The Affair) have joined the cast of The Pursuit of Love, TVLine has learned. They are among the latest additions to the ensemble led by Lily James (Downton Abbey, Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again).

Emily Mortimer (The Newsroom) is adapting Nancy Mitford’s novel for BBC One/Amazon Studios. Charles Collier (Top Boy), Matthew Read (Peaky Blinders) and Frith Tiplady (Ripper Street) will executive-produce. Mortimer will write, direct and star.

James will play Linda Radlet in the romantic dramedy, which is set in Europe between World War I and World War II. Emily Beecham (Into the Badlands) will play her best friend/cousin, Fanny.

West and Dolly Wells (Doll & Em) will play Linda’s parents. Scott will play Lord merlin, the Raddletts’ rich and weird neighbor. Mortimer will play Fanny’s mother.

The cast also includes Beattie Edmondson (Bridget Jones’ Baby), Shazad Latif (Star Trek: Discovery) and Freddie Fox (The Crown).

“I’ve always loved Nancy Mitford so when I was asked to adapt The Pursuit of Love it was impossible to say no,” Mortimer said via statement. “It’s an outrageously funny and honest story, whose central character — the wild, love-addicted Linda Radlett — still reads as a radical. I feel privileged to be directing this show and working with the brilliant teams at Open Book, Moonage Pictures, Amazon Studios and the BBC.”

The Pursuit of Love will consist of three 60-minute episodes and will be filmed in the Bristol and Bath areas of the United Kingdom. It will premiere on BBC One in the UK and on Amazon Prime in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

Netflix is leading the pack with 31 total nominations, and its own When They See Us emerged as the most-nominated show, with five of its performers scoring individual nods in addition to its nomination for Best Limited Series.

Pop’s Schitt’s Creek and NBC’s This Is Us fared well with five nominations each. Barry, Chernobyl, The Crown, Fleabag, Fosse/Verdon, Game of Thrones, The Good Fight, Unbelievable and Watchmen all netted four nominations a piece.

The winners — including those in the film categories, which you can read here — will be announced during a live ceremony airing Sunday, January 12 at 8/7c on The CW.

RELATED STORIES

Phoebe Waller-Bridge‘s global takeover continued in earnest late Saturday, with the Brit auteur’s tragicomic Amazon series Fleabag dominating the 2019 Television Critics Association Awards with three trophies, including best comedy series, best comedic performer (for Waller-Bridge) and the coveted Program of the Year. Waller-Bridge, who in addition to being Fleabag‘s titular star also is the show’s creator/writer/EP, was on hand for the non-televised ceremony, which was hosted by Desus & Mero. (Could a Fleabag Emmy sweep be next?)

Waller-Bridge has previously stated that Fleabag‘s now-TCA award winning second season would serve as the series’ swan song. However, Amazon boss Jennifer Salke last week left the door slightly ajar for a Season 3, telling reporters, “Nothing would make us happier than to have her bring another season of that show [to us], or anything else she wants to do. I mean, I’m forever the optimist, so I remain always hopeful until it’s really over.”

Other noteworthy TCA winners included AMC’s Better Call Saul (best drama series), Michelle Williams (best dramatic performer for FX’s limited series Fosse/Verdon), Netflix’s Russian Doll (best new program), Chernobyl (best limited series or movie), HBO’s Michael Jackson exposé Leaving Neverland (best news/information program) and Netflix’s Queer Eye (best reality show).

On the legacy awards front, HBO’s Deadwood received the annual Heritage Award, in “recognition of the groundbreaking series’ rich characters, authentic landscape, engaging stories, and painstaking attention to detail — blending fact and fiction to craft a unique viewing experience that completely redefined the Western genre for a modern audience.” Deadwood creator David Milch, meanwhile, was honored with the TCA’s Career Achievement Award.

All told, Amazon and HBO were the top winners with three awards apiece, followed by two wins for Netflix.

A new series, however, will bring Oh more frequently to your screens. It’s the next from Phoebe Waller-Bridge, creator/star of the poignant yet biting dark comedy, Fleabag, as well as Crashing, the ensemble comedy about not-quite-squatters in an abandoned hospital.

The new, Oh-starring comedy is called Killing Eve, and will air on BBC America. This is the first series of Waller-Bridge’s that isn’t billed as a comedy; actually, it’s an eight-episode spy thriller. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Oh will play the title role, a security operative who’s stuck at her desk, whose aspirations of being a spy out in the field seem futile — until she becomes tasked with hunting down a psychopathic assassin, named Villanelle. Waller-Bridge will write all eight of the episodes, and will also serve as showrunner.

Waller-Bridge said in a statement, “I am quivering with excitement about working with Sandra! I have been a huge fan of hers forever and am pinching myself that she is playing our Eve. She is going to be so badass in this role.”

As you may have noted, the premise has echoes of Spy, but is actually adapted from novellas (Codename Villanelle and Villanelle: Hollowpoint) by Luke Jennings. The author mentioned on Twitter that casting for the Villannelle character is imminent:

And Bridge released a colorful statement of glee about the casting news, saying, “I am quivering with excitement about working with Sandra! I have been a huge fan of hers forever and am pinching myself that she is playing our Eve. She is going to be so badass in this role.”

This week we hear from Olivia Sudjic, whose debut, Sympathy, is about online identity, infatuation, and stalking. It follows a woman confronting a void in her past, and beginning to fill it with an obsession over an another woman’s Internet — and then real life — presence. As NPR recently put it, it “could be about falling in love in the digital age. Or it could be about falling down a digital rabbit hole.” With the novel having hit the shelves on April 4, Sudjic spoke to us about everything from balancing teaching with writing, to the wide generation gap social media has engendered, to Phoebe Waller Bridge’s TV series, Fleabag.

What is your elevator pitch to folks in the industry describing your book? 

The Talented Mr Ripley with smartphones. A story about how infatuation destabilizes our sense of self and of being alone in an age of ‘connectivity’.

What do you tell your relatives it’s about?

Social Media. I don’t want to sound like a brat; it’s hardly something to be smug about, but people over a certain age live in another world to their kids and grandkids in this respect. They can’t appreciate the extent to which apps like Instagram, and associated algorithms, determine the lives of young people, and how everything can be manipulated. For those readers, this context needs spelling out otherwise certain parts of the plot seem too implausible. That implausibility is part of the point.

How long was this project marinating in a draft or in your head before it became a book deal?

Marinating is a good word. Maybe it was more like composting for me though. I’d say the original idea came to me at the start of 2014 and the book was sold in October 2015, so nearly two years.

Name a canonical book you think is totally overrated.

The Bible.

A book you’ve read more than two times.

Bluets by Maggie Nelson. It’s short.

A book or other piece of art that influenced your writing for this particular project.

Lewis Carroll’s Through the Looking Glass.

What’s your favorite show to binge watch when you’re not writing?

Transparent by Jill Soloway. Fleabag by Phoebe Waller-Bridge was also suggested to me after I wrote Sympathy, the final episode knocked me out.

What’s the last movie you saw in theaters?

Toni Erdmann, by Maren Ade.

Do you listen to music while you’re writing? If so, what kind? 

No. The only time I did while writing Sympathy was when I wanted to get myself into the right frame of mind to write something that I didn’t know how to do. I tried to listen to Sampha in order to write an emotional scene, but it didn’t work because what emotion can you add to Sampha? Then a friend recommended I listen to counter-intuitive music, so I listened to shit upbeat pop, basically Kiss FM, and that worked much better.

Who is your fashion icon?

Phoebe Philo. Even her name is perfect.

If you could buy a house anywhere in the world just to write in, where would it be?

First reaction is somewhere remote, bright but cold with mountains and/or lakes. Somewhere with a view, where I wouldn’t be tempted to go outside too much except for mulling-over walks. Somewhere like Iona, an island in Scotland. In reality, I need coffee shops and people to watch whose language I speak. Maybe upstate New York? Is Trump in power in this fantasy?

What did you initially want to be when you grew up?

My dad wanted me to be an architect, and I obliged as a child insofar as I liked drawing plans of my dream house — I took apart his furniture and made elaborate dens. But then I started saying I wanted to be an author and illustrator at the age of eight or so. I wanted to be Quentin Blake and Roald Dahl in one. Then there was a phase of liking the sound of “Interior Designer” when I began trying to turn my parents’ very minimalist apartment into a kind of homage to Victoriana with curtain tassels. Then I graduated in a recession with an arts degree and thought maybe I should be a lawyer, but I did an internship and realized I’d be hopeless, so I spent a while on the millennial snowflake job safari before coming back to writing when I was twenty-five.

Did you have a new years resolution for 2017? If so, what?

Finish reading books I start. I’m terrified by how little I can concentrate on reading at the moment. Don’t be too masochistic or read all the reviews of my first book if/when they come out this Spring. Write a second novel by October that is wildly different to the first.

What freaks you out the most about four years of Trump as US President?

As someone living in the U.K., his gaslight approach to fact and fiction. Everyone will slowly go mad.

Do you prefer a buzzing coffee shop or silent library?

Coffee shop for the initial stages of writing when silence is a deafening distraction. Then privacy (but not a library) for when the stabilizers come off and I need to prowl around the same room for twenty-four hours at a time and pee in a bottle if the urge arises when I’m right in the middle of something good.

Do you write at a desk, bed or couch?

Desk and couch. Edit anywhere. I should add I don’t need to be stationary; mainline trains are excellent places to write.

Is morning writing or late-night writing your go-to-time?

Late night. I need to feel like time is almost up before I can really get going.

Do you tend towards writing it all out in one big messy draft and then editing, or perfecting as you go (or something in between)?

I’ve only ever done this once before so I’m trying to fine tune my process at the moment with my second book, but definitely messy draft. I collect fragments together then see if I can make something out of it. I’d like it to become less like that, more deliberate. I’m trying to be more spare with my writing. I think that because Sympathy was the first thing I’d ever seriously tried to write, a lot came rushing out and now I can be a bit calmer and more discerning.

How do you pay the bills, if not solely by your pen and your wit?

Tutoring, eBaying off my shit, credit card, and the occasional meal from a benevolent baby boomer. I moved into my parents’ house, then my grandparents’ house, and then my other grandparents’ house — a total of two years living rent-free — in order to get my first book done. I still teach but I’m trying to be strict with how many hours I do. There’s no point quitting a job to write if you’re just going to be busy finding other ways to make money. Better to be relatively broke but with focus… though I have no dependents and I’m sure that changes everything.

What is your trick to finding time to write your book while also doing the above? 

I don’t really do both at once because I can’t fully inhabit a work of fiction of my own if I need to go teach someone Cat on A Hot Tin Roof and talk to them about their exam stress. It’s like trying to remember a dream after you’ve already been out of bed doing normal things for a while. I carve up my time so that there might be three consecutive months where I’m tutoring solidly all week, doing bits of journalism, admin and tax returns etc. I don’t beat myself up for not writing. It’s composting time. I make notes and jot down ideas or plot structure, but that’s it. Then when I have a critical mass of those notes and just enough cash to see me through for a few months, I hit pause on money-making schemes and live like a nun, see no one, go nowhere, eat beans. It’s a bit selfish, I might have to rethink it.

Is life getting in the way of keeping up with the shows you wanna try out? We feel your tube-related pain. Here’s a handy feature that’ll help you locate the hidden gems in this era of Peak TV.

FLEABAG

NETWORK | Amazon

CREATED BY | Phoebe Waller-Bridge

NUMBER OF EPISODES | 6

EPISODE LENGTH | 30 mins.

PREMISE | Waller-Bridge (Broadchurch) stars — and shines — in this UK comedy as Fleabag, a proudly promiscuous London café owner who talks directly to the camera, sharing her most intimate dating misadventures with us like we’re old chums. Fleabag’s life is a total mess: Her love life is busy but unfulfilling, her café never has any customers… and her best friend just died. But she takes comfort in annoying her uptight sister Claire (Sian Clifford) and her evil stepmother, played by Emmy nominee Olivia Colman (The Night Manager).

RELATEDPeak TV Treasure: Review

WORTH YOUR TIME IF YOU ENJOY… | British comedies with a wickedly dark sense of humor, rom-coms with frank discussions of sex (e.g. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), amusingly bleak depictions of the modern dating scene, characters breaking the fourth wall, Olivia Colman, guinea pig-themed cafés.

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY ALSO KNOW… | Waller-Bridge is phenomenal here in a real star-making role: flat-out hilarious, endlessly charming (even when Fleabag misbehaves) and surprisingly poignant, too. The only reason she won’t get Emmy attention this summer is because not enough voters have seen Fleabag. And the show saves a big twist for the finale, which packs a real emotional wallop — and pushes Waller-Bridge’s performance to new heights.

RELATEDPeak TV Treasure: Search Party

IS IT COMING BACK? | A Season 2 hasn’t been officially ordered yet by the BBC — where Fleabag originally aired in the UK — but Waller-Bridge said just last week she’s aiming to shoot a sophomore run this November, for a planned 2018 release.

WHERE CAN I WATCH IT? | All six Season 1 episodes are available now on Amazon Prime. (And if you still want more Waller-Bridge after that, her slacker sitcom Crashing is also streaming on Netflix.)

Press PLAY on the trailer below to get a taste of Fleabag, then hit the comments: Will you make this your next binge-watch?
