Station Eleven will premiere in the UK on STARZPLAY this January.
Based on the best-selling novel of the same name, the post-apocalyptic series tells the stories of survivors of a devastating flu as they attempt to rebuild and reimagine the world anew while holding on to the best of what’s been lost. The 10-episode drama stars Mackenzie Davis (Irresistible, Terminator: Dark Fate, “Halt and Catch Fire,”), Himesh Patel (Yesterday, “The Luminaries,”) Daniel Zovatto (“Penny Dreadful: City of Angels,” “Here and Now”), David Wilmot (“The Crown,” “The Alienist,” Ordinary Love), Lawler (Flora & Ulysses), Philippine Velge (Summer of 85, “Doctors,”) Nabhaan Rizwan (1917, “Informer,”) and Lori Petty (Point Break, A League of Their Own, “Shameless”). BAFTA and Golden Globe® Award nominee Gael Garcìa Bernal (“Mozart in the Jungle,” The Motorcycle Diaries, Y tu mamá también) and Danielle Deadwyler (The Harder They Fall, “P-Valley”) appear in recurring roles.
Station Eleven was created for TV by Patrick Somerville (“Maniac,” “The Leftovers”) with Paramount Television Studios serving as the studio. The series is executive produced by Somerville, who also serves as showrunner, Scott Steindorff (Chef), Scott Delman, Dylan Russell (Chef, Jane Got a Gun), Jessica Rhoades (“Utopia,” “Dirty John,” “Sharp Objects”), Hiro Murai (“Atlanta”), Jeremy Podeswa and Nate Matteson (“The Choe Show”). Nick Cuse (“Calls,” The Hunt) and David Nicksay (In The Heights, Pitch Perfect 3) are co-executive producers. Murai, Podeswa, Helen Shaver and Lucy Tcherniak also direct.
The programme premiered on HBO Max last week in the USA, but fans on this side of the pond will have to wait for another few weeks, with the series set to premiere on 30th January 2022. Episodes will then arrive weekly.
