Posted by on
  The upcoming Paramount+ drama series Happy Face has found all of its series regulars and jonesed for its recurring talk show host and Melissa’s boss. The final series regulars found are  Khiyla Aynne   and Benjamin Mackey, while Supergirl alum David Harewood is racking in the ratings. As one could surmise, Aynne and Mackey play Melissa (played by Annaleigh Ashford )’s kids with husband Ben, played by James Wolk . Specifically, Aynne  plays Hazel, their  secure and happy  15-year-old daughter who initially believes that her mother is off on a simple business trip. However,  she soon starts suspecting that something dire is going on, beginning to investigate and uncover the shocking circumstances of her mother’s past.  Mackey plays  lively   9-year-old Max, who takes his stable upbringing for granted and doesn’t grow his older sister’s suspicions regarding mom’s sudden absence. He instead steadfastly believes she’s producing some sort of on-location segment for  The Dr. Greg Show . A

Stephen Moyer-Starring Prequel Series 'Sexy Beast' Gets Premiere Date And Trailer

Posted by on


Paramount+ has set the release date and unleashed the trailer for Sexy Beast, the prequel series for the 2000 British gangster film of the same name. This series adaptation stars James McArdle, Emun Elliott, Tamsin Greig, Stephen Moyer and Sarah Greene. The series will premiere exclusively on the service in the United State and all international territories were available on January 25.

McArdle and Elliott step into the roles of Gary "Gal” Dove and Don Logan, originally played by Ray Winstone and Ben Kingsley. This prequel explores their complicated relationship as small town thieves and best friends finding themselves falling into London’s mad criminal world during the vibrant and volatile 1990s. Gal’s emerging relationship with adult film star Deedee, played by Greene threatens everything as she endangers herself with “ambitions to control her own personal destiny”. Moyer, probably most familiar to a millennial audience for starring on the HBO series True Blood, plays Teddy Bass, a treacherous, up-and-coming gangster, who manages to ensnare Gal and Don into this criminal network, while Greig is Don’s older sister Cecilia, described as pathologically controlling and formidable.

“I feel very fortunate to be a part of this world,” said series star McArdle. “The original story leaves so much space for us all to wonder what happened within Gal and Don’s friendship in the years prior. I’m looking forward to everyone being able to rediscover these characters and find out.” The cast also includes Eliza Bennett, Clea Martin, Nicholas Nunn, Peter Ferdinando, John Dagleish, Robbie Gee, Paul Kaye, Lex Shrapnel, Cally Lawrence, David Kennedy, Julian Rhind-Tutt, Ralph Brown, Nitin Ganatra and Alice Bailey Johnson. The Paramount Global-owned series has a litany of executive producers including the film’s original writers David Scinto and Louis Mellis. Watch the trailer below.
