The Oscar-winning actress has landed her next gig.
Olivia Colman, who is currently starring in Netflix royal drama The Crown is set to lead HBO and Sky drama Landscapers.
The true-crime four-part limited series will explore the lives of convicted killers Christopher and Susan Edwards (Colman). Per The Hollywood Reporter, the role of Christopher has yet to be cast.
Landscapers will be directed by Alexander Payne from a script by Colman’s husband, Ed Sinclair. Per HBO, the series is based on “hours of interviews with the real-life figures behind the crime who have always maintained their innocence.”
“I love Ed’s scripts, which is just as well as he cooks many of my meals. No, the truth is it’s quite rare to be desperate to play a part on the first reading of a script, but that was the case here,” Colman said in a statement.
