Netflix has today announced the premiere date for its upcoming original limited series Anatomy of a Scandal starring Sienna Miller (The Loudest Voice), Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey) and Rupert Friend (Homeland).
All six episodes of the limited series will be available on Friday, April 15.
A psychological thriller and gripping courtroom drama, the series infiltrates Britain's elite through personal and political scandal, where the truth lies between justice and privilege. James (Friend) and Sophie Whitehouse (Miller) live in a blissful and rarified world. A Minister in Parliament, a loving family at home, James' trajectory appears without limits. Until a scandalous secret suddenly comes to light, Barrister Kate Woodcroft (Dockery) has a trajectory of her own, and her prosecution threatens to tear into Westminster, the Whitehouse marriage, and her own personal esteem.
In addition to Miller, Dockery and Friend, the cast includes Naomi Scott, Josette Simon, Geoffrey Streatfeild and Joshua McGuire.
David E. Kelley and Melissa James Gibson created the series, with S.J. Clarkson directing every episode. All three executive produce with Liza Chasin, Bruna Papandrea, Allie Goss and Sarah Vaughan. Made Up Stories and 3Dot Productions produce.
