ITV has released first look images of the cast in the new romance drama, Adultery, written and created by BAFTA-award winning writer Danny Brocklehurst (Fool Me Once, Brassic).
Produced by Poison Pen Studios (part of ITV Studios) for ITV and STV, the six-part series will launch this October and will be available for streaming on ITVX and STV Player.
Newly released images show Dominic Cooper (Preacher, The Devil’s Double) and Romola Garai (One Life, Vigil) as Tom Kirkman and Beth Brookes sharing an intimate moment, offering a glimpse into the insatiable desire between their characters in the series. Tom’s daughter Jess (Leila Khan – Heartstopper, Crookhaven) can be seen with Beth’s son Ollie (Johnny Sanpher), blissfully unaware of their parents’ secret and wrapped up in a young love story of their own. Meanwhile, Beth’s husband Neil (Matthew McNulty – Domina, Deadwater Fell) and Tom’s wife Hannah (Shelley Conn – Gen V, Bridgerton) remain none the wiser, as their partners risk the collapse of their marriages and the lives of both families being changed forever.
Additional casting includes Andrew Knott (Gavin & Stacey, Protection) as Dave, the ex-husband of Beth’s recently deceased best friend, and James Murray (The Crown, Masters of the Air) and Charley Webb (The Long Shadow, Better) as Paul and Leah Kirkman, Tom’s brother and sister-in-law.
Adultery (6×60) is created and written by Danny Brocklehurst. Will Sinclair directed episodes 1-3, and Daniel O’Hara directed episodes 4-6 with Sarah Lewis as series producer. Ben Stephenson, Preethi Mavahalli and Luke Woellhaf executive produced alongside series creator and writer Danny Brocklehurst and Polly Hill for ITV.
Adultery is produced in association with, and will be distributed internationally by ITV Studios.
