Andrea Riseborough and Domnhall Gleeson Star in Channel 4’s ‘Alice & Jack’ Amidst To Leslie Controversy, Creating a Tale of Unbreakable Love
Channel 4 has tapped the talents of Andrea Riseborough and Domnhall Gleeson for their upcoming drama series, “Alice & Jack,” a project from Victor Levin of Mad Men fame and Juho Kuosmanen, known for Compartment 6. This casting marks a significant step forward for Riseborough, who faced the To Leslie Oscar controversy earlier in the year.
The narrative revolves around the titular characters, Alice and Jack, in what distributor Fremantle describes as a “love story for the ages.” It delves into the depths of their connection, which seems unbreakable at first, yet begs the question of whether they can overcome their emotional complexities and life’s challenges to find lasting happiness together.
“Alice & Jack” brings together a powerhouse consortium of production companies, including Groundswell Productions, De Maio Entertainment from Italy, and Me + You Productions, the creators behind I Am Ruth. Fremantle is overseeing global sales, amplifying the series’ potential reach.
Domnhall Gleeson, prior to the SAG strike, expressed his enthusiasm for the project’s themes of connection and love, coupled with a touch of humor. The characters of Alice and Jack, he explained, are inexorably drawn to each other, discovering something in their bond that they couldn’t find individually.
Christian Vesper, CEO of Fremantle Global Drama, praised the series for its seamless fusion of love and comedy, offering a delightful viewing experience.
Behind the camera, Victor Levin serves as the director, while Juho Kuosmanen, co-writer and director of the Cannes Grand Prix co-winner Compartment 6, takes on the role of co-director. Hong Khaou, renowned for Lilting, directs the second block of the series. An ensemble of talented executive producers, including Riseborough and Gleeson, adds depth and creative insight to the project.
As the spotlight shines on this captivating drama, “Alice & Jack” promises a heartfelt exploration of love’s enduring power, skillfully interwoven with moments of levity, making it a must-watch for audiences seeking both depth and entertainment.
