Jilly Cooper’s steamy novel Rivals brought to life by Poldark hunk Aidan Turner in new pictures for Disney+ series

Aidan Turner leads the cast of Disney+ adaptation Rivals, based on the steamy novel by Jilly Cooper. And the cast is INSANELY good!

Actor Alex Hassell stars as the dashing ex-Olympian, MP, incorrigible rake, and dangerously charismatic Rupert Campbell-Black (Credit: Disney+) David Tennant, Aidan Turner, Claire Rushbrook, Danny Dyer, Emily Atack and many more have joined the cast of Rivals on Disney+. “As a rival group emerges to pitch for the franchise, reputations ripen and decline, true love blossoms and burns, marriages are made and shattered, and sex raises its (delicious) head at almost every throw as, in bed and boardroom, the race is on to capture the Cotswold Crown.” Nafessa Williams is pictured as Cameron Cook, a ferociously talented American TV executive who is brought to England by Tony to produce Declan’s new prime-time talk show (Credit: Disney+) Rivals will be eight episodes long.
