Gripping 6-part Channel 4 drama with Poldark star will be your next obsession

Channel 4 has just announced Wrong Move, a six-part dark comedy-thriller starring the likes of Poldark’s Eleanor Tomlinson and The Guest’s Eve Myles.

The drama, which doesn’t yet have a release date, has just started filming in West Yorkshire. The show will see David Thewlis playing Trevor, a dangerous sociopath, who “sends shockwaves through the entire property chain” when he pulls out of a house sale at the last minute.

Meanwhile, Eve’s character is hoping that moving into her “forever home” with her husband, played by Rory Kinnear, will help to save their marriage. And Eleanor’s character gets involved with the drama as she prepares for the arrival of her first child with partner, Juliette, and is also impacted by Trevor’s last-minute actions.

A spokeswoman for Channel 4 said of the new show: “Packed with twists and turns, Wrong Move delves into the complicated lives of the people trying to take the next steps up the property ladder, and the misguided notion that moving house can fix everything. The truth is you can move, but your problems come with you.”

Who will star in Wrong Move?

Leading the cast as Trevor is David Thewlis, who is best known for playing Remus Lupin in the Harry Potter franchise. The star also had credits in Black Beauty, War Horse, The Artful Dodger and I’m Thinking of Ending Things.

Joining the show as married couple Catherine and Michael are Eve Myles and Rory Kinnear. Eve shot to fame as Gwen Cooper in Doctor Who spin-off Torchwood, and she has also appeared in the likes of Belonging, Little Dorrit, Broadchurch and The Guest. Meanwhile, Rory is known for projects like the Bank of Dave films, Count Arthur Strong, Years and Years and The Imitation Game.

Rounding out the cast are Eleanor Tomlinson and Gwyneth Keyworth, who play Stella and Juliette, respectively, a couple who are expecting their first child. Fans will recognise Eleanor for her roles in Poldark, War of the Worlds and The White Queen, while Gwyneth has starred in Game of Thrones, Defending the Guilty and Death Valley.
