After wowing audiences in Yellowjackets and Fallout, Ella Purnell is diving into the deliciously twisted world of Sweetpea. Based on C.J. Skuse’s 2017 novel, this “coming-of-rage” dark comedy follows Rhiannon, a seemingly ordinary young woman who takes an unexpected turn towards her sinister side.
Sky and Starz have teamed up to bring this offbeat tale to life, promising a rollercoaster ride that’ll make you laugh and squirm in equal measure.
Alongside Purnell, the show boasts a stellar cast including Leah Harvey, Tim Samuels, and Dino Kelly. Though filmed back in 2020, Sweetpea is finally set to hit screens before 2024 wraps up.
As fans eagerly await a glimpse of Purnell’s transformation into Rhiannon, it’s clear this series is gearing up to be a wild, unpredictable journey that’ll keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
