The Cry to Stream on Sundance Now in U.S., Canada

Sundance Now has picked up The Cry, starring Jenna Coleman (Victoria, Doctor Who) and Ewen Leslie (Top of the Lake: China Girl), which will begin streaming on the service in the U.S. and Canada starting November 8.

Sold by DRG, the psychological thriller chronicles the collapse of a relationship between two young parents in the aftermath of a tragedy. It explores the myths and truths of motherhood, marriage and post-partum depression. The series is based on the best-selling novel by Helen FitzGerald.

Coleman commented: “I’m so proud to bring The Cry to the U.S. on Sundance Now. Under the forensic pulse of the incredible Glendyn Ivan, we hope to take audiences on an unexpected journey that will stifle, surprise and in true psychological thriller form, keep audiences guessing right until the very end.”

“We are thrilled with the addition of The Cry to our fall programming slate,” said Jan Diedrichsen, general manager of SundanceTV and Sundance Now. “The sharp writing, surprising plot twists and deeply layered performances from Jenna Coleman and Ewen Leslie set this show apart and will have our audience riveted from beginning to end.”
