In addition to Waller-Bridge in the lead, the series stars Brett Gelman (<em>Twin Peaks<\/em>), Olivia Colman (<em>Peep Show<\/em>), Bill Paterson (<em>Outlander<\/em>), Hugh Dennis (<em>Outnumbered<\/em>), Hugh Skinner (<em>Poldark<\/em>), Jamie Demetriou (<em>People Time<\/em>), Jenny Rainsford (<em>The Smoke<\/em>) and Sian Clifford (<em>Paddy<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>The show is executive produced by Harry Williams and Jack Williams (<em>The Missing<\/em>) and is produced by their banner\u00a0Two Brothers Pictures and by Lydia Hampson. Harry Bradbeer (<em>Dickensian<\/em>) directs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRarely does talent as special as Phoebe Waller-Bridge appear,\u201d said Joe Lewis, Amazon&#8217;s head of half-hour series. \u201cFrom writing to acting, <em>Fleabag<\/em> is as compelling as Phoebe\u2019s talents are undeniable. We\u2019re excited to let customers laugh, cry and occasionally watch things get real awkward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Waller-Bridge commented, \u201cI\u2019m over the moon to be working with Amazon on <em>Fleabag<\/em>. They are true risk-takers and it\u2019s incredibly exciting to be alongside the other amazing shows they are creating. This character is very close to my heart and I\u2019m thrilled that she gets to cause mischief on both sides of the pond. I never imagined in a million years Amazon would be ordering something from me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SEATTLE\/LONDON: Amazon Prime Video has added to its U.S. fall lineup the all3media international-distributed show Fleabag, written by and starring Broadchurch\u2019s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[619,663,664,665],"class_list":["post-7047","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-all3media-international","tag-amazon-prime-video","tag-fleabag","tag-phoebe-waller-bridge"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Amazon Prime Video Takes Series from Broadchurch Alum - TVUSA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SEATTLE\/LONDON: Amazon Prime Video has added to its U.S. fall lineup the all3media international-distributed show Fleabag, written by and starring Broadchurch\u2019s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Amazon Prime Video Takes Series from Broadchurch Alum - TVUSA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"SEATTLE\/LONDON: Amazon Prime Video has added to its U.S. fall lineup the all3media international-distributed show Fleabag, written by and starring Broadchurch\u2019s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVUSA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2016-05-19T17:01:26+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-05-19T19:06:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/worldscreen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/\",\"name\":\"Amazon Prime Video Takes Series from Broadchurch Alum - TVUSA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2016-05-19T17:01:26+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2016-05-19T19:06:23+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"description\":\"SEATTLE\/LONDON: Amazon Prime Video has added to its U.S. fall lineup the all3media international-distributed show Fleabag, written by and starring Broadchurch\u2019s Phoebe Waller-Bridge.\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/amazon-prime-video-takes-series-from-broadchurch-alum\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Amazon Prime Video Takes Series from Broadchurch Alum\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/\",\"name\":\"TVUSA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvusa\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
