The first trailer for the Sundance Now original series Ten Percent, the British adaptation of hit French series Call My Agent!, has premiered, and it's definitely a starry affair.
Jack Davenport, Jim Broadbent, Lydia Leonard, Maggie Steed, Hiftu Quasem, Edward Bluemel and Prasanna Puwanarajah are among the main cast members in the comedy series set inside Nightingale Hart, a small and most certainly fictional London talent agency.
The trailer also features a sneak peek at guest stars including Helena Bonham Carter, David Oyelowo, Kelly Macdonald, Phoebe Dynevor and Dominic West.
Sundance Now's plot synopsis teases: "After tragedy strikes the company, the personal and professional lives of the agents and assistants are thrown into turmoil. But duty calls – their celebrity clients are in constant need of help from their agents, with issues ranging from marital problems to over-commitment to lingering method acting to stage fright."
"As the Nightingale Hart agents deal with the incessant demands of their jobs, they’ll also find themselves dealing with more off-screen drama than they ever expected."
Ten Percent is being steered by writer John Morton, whose previous credits include the acclaimed British satirical comedy series Twenty Twelve and W1A. Sundance Now and AMC+ will exclusively premiere the first two episodes on Friday, April 29 with one new episode following weekly on Fridays. An encore airing of the first episode will debut linearly on BBC America Sunday, May 1 with one episode weekly thereafter.
