Hulu has unveiled the first official trailer at the upcoming Normal People series.
The series is based on the celebrated second novel by the 29-year-old Irish author of the same name. The series stars Daisy Edgar-Jones as Marianne and Paul Mescal as Connell, two high schoolers lovers whose relationship becomes much more fractured and complicated as the years go on and the two head off to college.
Here’s the official synopsis from the streamer: “Normal People tracks the tender but complicated relationship of Marianne and Connell from the end of their school days in a small-town west of Ireland to their undergraduate years at Trinity College. At school, he’s well-liked and popular, while she’s lonely, proud and intimidating. But when Connell comes to pick up his mother from her cleaning job at Marianne’s house, a strange and indelible connection grows between the two teenagers — one they are determined to conceal. A year later, they’re both studying in Dublin and Marianne has found her feet in a new social world but Connell hangs at the side lines, shy and uncertain. Honest, smart and intoxicating, Normal People sees the pair weave in and out of each other’s lives and explores just how complicated intimacy and young love can be.”
