Federation Studios Boards Cape Town-Set ‘The Morning After’ With Rising British Star Amara Okereke, Unveils Trailer

Federation Studios has acquired distribution rights to “The Morning After,” an eight-part comedy series headlined by up-and-coming British actor Amara Okereke (“In the Lost Lands”). It filmed on location in Cape Town in South Africa.

The show is produced by Paris-based company Paradoxal and Cape Town-based outfit Both Worlds, which previously partnered on “Recipes for Love and Murder.” The series is co-produced by SWR, ARD FabFiction and Prime Video Africa.

“The Morning After” will premiere in Sub-Saharan Africa on Prime Video and in Germany on ARD’s SVOD service Mediatek. Okereke stars in the series opposite a young local ensemble including Gaosi Raditholo, Carmen Pretorius, Richard Gau, Tarryn Wyngaard and Danica Jones.

Created by Thierry Cassuto and Karen Jeynes, “The Morning After” tells the story of 25-year-old Birmingham party girl Nina Morgan, who wakes up naked on a beach in Cape Town about 6,000 miles from home. She’s rescued by local misfits who help her exact revenge. Each episode of the series starts “the morning after” with a bombshell moment, then steps back to discover how our characters ended up here. The series was directed by Cindy Lee (“Girls of St Agnes”) and Karen Jeynes (“Recipes for Love and Murder”). Executive producers are Rémy Jacquelin at Paradoxal and Thierry Cassuto, Karen Jeynes and Thato Cassuto.

“The Morning After” was produced with the support of the South African Department of Trade, Industry and Competition (DTIC), with the financial backing of Natixis-Coficiné.

Okereke recently wrapped filming of Paul W.S. Anderson’s “In the Lost Lands,” in which she stars opposite Dave Bautista, Milla Jovovich and Arly Jover.
