Sweetpea S1
Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets, Fallout, Arcane) stars in Sweetpea as Rhiannon, the girl everyone overlooks, who may just be able to get away with murder.
The twisted and darkly comic coming-of-rage thriller has an 86% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics consensus says, “Ella Purnell is a diabolical delight in Sweetpea, a revenge fantasy that holds a lot of darkness beneath its playful exterior.”
Sweetpea’s ensemble cast includes two-time BAFTA winner Nicôle Lecky (Mood, Sense8); BAFTA nominees Jon Pointing (Big Boys), Leah Harvey (Foundation), and Dustin Demri-Burns (Slow Horses); Calam Lynch (Bridgerton), and Emmy nominee Jeremy Swift (Higgins in Ted Lasso).
