The Cry

Victoria's Jenna Coleman stars in a compellingly twisty tale of loss, heartbreak, and gaslighting that will leave you guessing right up to the end. 

Heart-wrenching drama The Cry will make its way to America this November on Sundance Now, AMC Networks’ direct-to-consumer streaming video on demand service. The four-episode series, which was the second biggest drama launch of the year for BBC One after the megahit thriller Bodyguard, will begin streaming on Thursday, November 8.

The BBC released its first trailer for upcoming, presumably heart-wrenching drama The Cry starring Victoria’s Jenna Coleman.

The Sundance Channel has snapped up the American broadcast rights to upcoming Jenna Coleman BBC drama The Cry.

The four-part series will first stream on the network’s SVOD channel, called Sundance Now, before airing on the network itself. There’s no firm streaming or broadcast date for The Cry in the U.S at the moment, likely because an airdate hasn’t been announced in the U.K. yet. (Or, at least, nothing has been confirmed beyond vague statements that it's “coming this autumn.”)

Victoria star Jenna Coleman will leave her crown and period costume behind for a little while, in order to take on the lead role in upcoming four-part BBC psychological drama called The Cry.

Based on the 2013 novel by Helen FitzGerald, The Cry tells the story of a young woman named Joanna, whose baby is abducted - the consequences of which change her life forever.
