Bravo has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming original limited series Dirty John starring Connie Britton and Eric Bana.
The 8-episode limited series will debut on Sunday, November 25 at 10/9c. The series based on the podcast of the same name has already been renewed for a second season, which will focus on a new story and characters.
Debra Newell (Britton) has a seemingly perfect life: she's successful, beautiful and lives in one of California's most desirable coastal cities, Newport Beach. The only thing missing is love. So when she finally meets charming and handsome doctor John Meehan (Bana), she's quickly swept into a whirlwind romance, must to the dismay of her daughters Terra (Julia Garner) and Veronica (Juno Temple). Their fast-tracked relationship creates tension between Debra and the girls, leaving them no choice but to investigate the stranger who has swept their mother off her feet. And with a fraught family history, the backstory of Debra and her mother Arlane (Jean Smart) provides insight into why she may have been so vulnerable to John in the first place. As Debra gets drawn deeper into his lies and sinister game of psychological manipulation, it results in horrific consequences for an entire family.
The cast also features Kevin Zegers, Keiko Agena, John Karna, Sprague Grayden, Cliff Chamberlain, Jake Abel, David Barrera and Lindsey Kraft.
Alexandra Cunningham developed the series. She executive produces with Britton, Richard Suckle, Charles Roven, Mark Herzog, Christopher G. Cowen, Chris Argentieri and director Jeffrey Reiner. Universal Cable Productions, Atlas Entertainment and Los Angeles Times Studios produce.
