Frances O’Connor (The Missing, Mr Selfridge) and Harriet Walter (The Crown, Succession) will star in The End, a 10-part drama co-commissioned by Foxtel and Sky UK.
As first reported by IF, See-Saw Films will produce the series created and written by Samantha Strauss, with shooting starting next month on the Gold Coast, supported by Screen Queensland.
The cast includes Noni Hazlehurst, Robyn Nevin, Luke Arnold, John Waters, Alex Dimitriades and Roy Billing. “I play a retired philosophy professor who is starting to suffer from dementia and is not at all happy about it,” says Billing, adding that Strauss’ scripts are among the best he’s read in a long time. The DOP is Garry Phillips and Anousha Zarkesh is the casting director.
