She is a bright new talent to screenwriting and it is a testament to her writing that Emily Watson, one of our finest and most accomplished actors, has signed up to play the part of Emma. Clara\u2019s scripts are consistently gripping, with three compelling and brilliantly realized women at their heart. I can\u2019t wait to work with Polly Hill and ITV to bring them to life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hill, ITV&#8217;s head of drama, commented: \u201c<em>Too Close<\/em> is a brilliant script where you are never sure who has the power\u2014the psychologist or her patient, or whether Connie is the monster she\u2019s portrayed as. I\u2019m delighted that Emily Watson is going to play Emma, who will be phenomenal and I\u2019m looking forward to working with Ruth Kenley-Letts and the team at Snowed-In Productions to bring this fantastic adaptation to ITV.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ITV has commissioned the psychological thriller Too Close, starring Emily Watson (Chernobyl, Apple Tree Yard).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":11868,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[3310,321,3311],"class_list":["post-11867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-emily-watson","tag-itv","tag-snowed-in-productions","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
