Lola Petticrew, Hazel Doupe, Anthony Boyle, Josh Finan and Maxine Peake To Star In FX Limited Series ‘Say Nothing’
FX has ordered the limited series Say Nothing and tapped Lola Petticrew, Hazel Doupe, Anthony Boyle, Josh Finan and Maxine Peake to star with Nina Jacobson and Brad Simpson’s Color Force prod…
The nine-episode series is based on the book by Patrick Radden Keefe (who will serve as an exec producer) and tells an account of the troubles in Northern Ireland. Through the eyes of various IRA members, including sisters Dolours and Marian Price—young women who transformed into magnetic symbols of radical politics, Brendan Hughes—a tight-lipped but conflicted military strategist, and Gerry Adams—a savvy political operator who would go on to negotiate peace but ultimately deny his involvement with the IRA, Say Nothing unpacks the extremes some people will go to within a civil rights movement as they pursue their ideals, the mystery surrounding The Disappeared, the cost of silence, and the way society mends – or doesn’t – after a long and bloody conflict. Petticrew can be seen next opposite Julia Louis-Dreyfuss in the A24 pic Tuesday, which is already attracting a ton of attention after the studio recently released the trailer.
