Richard Gadd's life has taken a dramatic turn since his hit show, Baby Reindeer, became a sensation in Hollywood. Gone are the days of serving pints at The Hawley Arms, as Gadd is now a sought-after talent in the entertainment industry.
The series revolves around Gadd's character, Donny, a struggling comedian who becomes the target of a woman named Martha Scott after serving her a cup of tea at the pub where he works. Since its release on Netflix, the eight-part series has been making headlines, especially as real-life drama between Gadd and Fiona Harvey, the woman claiming to be the inspiration behind Martha, unfolds. Harvey even gave a fiery interview to Piers Morgan, and is now suing Netflix for $170 million for defamation and other charges.
While Gadd has not directly addressed the scandal, he has been making moves in the A-list world. He recently signed with a major US agent and is now working on his next TV project. The 35-year-old's new show, Lions, is a drama produced by both the BBC and HBO. The series follows two estranged brothers who reunite and explores their relationship over a span of 40 years. It promises to capture the energy of a changing city and address the question, "What does it mean to be a man?"
The casting for Lions has not yet been announced, but it has already attracted the attention of talented directors, including Alexandra Brodski from "Somewhere Boys and Rivals" and Eshref Reybrouck from "Cheyenne & Lola." Gadd expressed his excitement for the project, stating that it has always been a dream of his to work with HBO and be a part of their iconic shows.
Fans of Gadd can look forward to watching Lions on both BBC and BBC iPlayer.
