“I had to find something to relate to and draw on…the writing is really, really, good so I just had to make the scenes come alive.” – @claesbang, on the challenge of getting into character as JP Williams

he new 10-part series will stream on Apple TV+ later this year.
Apple TV+ has today revealed the first details about Sharon Horgan’s upcoming original series for the streamer, and it looks to be a funny thrill-ride.
Horgan will executive producer, write and star in Bad Sisters, a 10-episode series set to air later this year. It is part of a deal between the Apple TV+ and Horgan’s production company Merman, and is an adaptation of Belgian series Clan.
Bad Sisters is described as a “delicious blend of both dark comedy and thriller”, and follows the lives of the Garvey sisters, who are bound together by the premature death of their parents and a promise to always protect one another.
The sisters will be played by Horgan, Anne-Marie Duff (Suffragette, The Salisbury Poisonings), Eva Birthistle (Brooklyn, The Last Kingdom), Sarah Greene (Dublin Murders) and Eve Hewson (The Luminaries).
Meanwhile the cast is also set to include Claes Bang (Dracula, The Northman), Brian Gleeson (Frank of Ireland), Daryl McCormack (Peaky Blinders), Assaad Bouab (Call My Agent) and Saise Quinn, who has only appeared on screen once before in 2019 Irish film Arracht.
Horgan is best known for her Channel 4 series Catastrophe, and was recently cast opposite Michael Sheen in Best Interests, the new BBC drama from His Dark Material writer Jack Thorne.
