Netflix has released details on its new original series The Innocents, about two teenage runaways who are thrown into a journey of self-discovery that derails their innocent dream.

The series stars Sorcha Groundsell (Clique, Iona, Sleeping Lions), Percelle Ascott (Wizard vs. Aliens, The Weekend Movie) and Guy Pearce (L.A. Confidential, Memento, The King’s Speech). The eight-episode original is slated to launch exclusively on Netflix later this year.

The Innocents is produced by New Pictures, led by Charlie Pattinson, Elaine Pyke and Willow Grylls. The series is created by Hania Elkington and Simon Duric. Chris Croucher serves as producer. Farren Blackburn is executive producer of the series—alongside Pattinson, Pyke and Grylls—and director of six of the eight episodes.
