Laura Carmichael Thriller 'The Secrets She Keeps' to Premiere on Sundance Now
AMC Networks' streaming service AMC Premiere will be the American home for Downton Abbey alum Laura Carmichael's new series, an adaptation of the literary thriller The Secrets She Keeps.
The noir-ish thriller is based on a book of the same name by Michael Robotham, which tells the story of a chance encounter between two pregnant women in a Sydney supermarket. Meghan Shaughnessy is an upwardly mobile social media influencer, with what most people might call a "perfect life". At least, Agatha Fyfle thinks so, as she struggles to get by in a low-wage job with no support from the man who's the father of her child. But though these women have little in common on the surface, as their lives collide further they'll both risk everything to conceal the explosive secrets they're keeping.
Technically, the series is an Australian product, but it's being aired as one of BBC One's big dramas this summer.
Carmichael plays the scheming Agatha, opposite The Crown's Jessica de Gouw as Megan. For All Mankind's Michael Dorman plays Meghan's husband Jack.
