Swimming With Sharks S1
Inspired by the 1994 film of the same name, the psychological drama Swimming with Sharks centres on Lou Simms, a young female assistant at Fountain Pictures, a Hollywood studio filled with monster bosses, manipulators, schemers and intrigue. Little do they know she is poised to outwit them all.
The series, which had its world premiere at SXSW, stars Teen Choice nominees Kiernan Shipka (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) and Diane Kruger (Inglourious Basterds), with the likes of Emmy winner Donald Sutherland (The Undoing) and Black Reel winner Erika Alexander (Shining Girls, Run the World) co-starring.
AIPT calls it, “sexy, shocking, can’t-miss television.”
