Peacock has given a straight-to-series order for an adaptation of the novel “All Her Fault” by Andrea Mara.
Megan Gallagher (“Wolf,” “Suspicion”) will adapt for the book for the screen and executive produce the series. Gareth Neame, Nigel Marchant, and Joanna Strevens will executive produce on behalf of Carnival. Mara will serve as an associate producer. Universal International Studio will produce.
The series order was announced at the Television Critics Association winter press tour in Pasadena on Wednesday.
The book was first published in July 2021 by Transworld Digital. The official logline for the series states, “In Chicago, Marissa Irvine arrives at 14 Arthur Avenue, expecting to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate with a boy at his new school. But the woman who answers the door isn’t a mother she recognizes. She isn’t the nanny. She doesn’t have Milo. And so begins every parent’s worst nightmare.”
This will be the latest series order that Carnival has at Peacock. The company is also behind the upcoming series “Lockerbie” starring Colin Firth about the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. Carnival is also producing a series adaptation of “The Day of the Jackal” starring Eddie Redmayne and Lashana Lynch. Carnival previously produced shows like “Downton Abbey” and “The Last Kingdom.”
Peacock has announced three other series orders out of the TCA winter press tour — a limited series about serial killer John Wayne Gacy, a mockumentary starring Steph Curry and Adam Pally, and an espionage thriller starring “Shang Chi” star Simu Liu with James Wan executive producing.
