Richard Gadd’s BBC drama confirms cast with filming starting in 2025
As a fan who has been captivated by Richard Gadd’s raw and powerful storytelling, I can hardly contain my excitement for his new BBC drama, “Half Man”. Having witnessed his journey from the gripping tales of “Baby Reindeer” to this latest project, it’s clear that he continues to push boundaries and explore the complexities of human relationships.
Richard Gadd’s new BBC drama Half Man has confirmed its cast ahead of filming starting in 2025.
In addition to his roles as a writer and executive producer, the creator of “Baby Reindeer” is also scheduled to act alongside Jamie Bell, who stars in “All of Us Strangers.” The six-episode series will start filming in Scotland early next year.
This series, originally known as “Lions“, focuses on the complex bond between two siblings who have grown apart, detailing their stormy relationship that lasts nearly four decades.
The unexpected arrival of Ruben (Gadd) at Niall’s (Bell)’s wedding triggers a violent chain reaction, taking us on a journey through their past experiences.
The show explores the ups and downs in the bond between the siblings, spanning from the 1980s up until the current era. It begins by depicting their initial encounter as adolescents, leading to their estrangement as grownups – filled with numerous testing times throughout.
Half Man” explores the raw vigor of an evolving urban landscape – an ever-changing globe, in fact – as it delves into a thought-provoking query: “What defines masculinity in today’s world?” The story unfolds.
In a statement, Gadd expressed his joy at verifying that he will portray Ruben in the recently titled “Half Man” on BBC/HBO, alongside the extraordinary Jamie Bell.
When composing the script, I always had him specifically in my thoughts, never once believing we’d have the opportunity to bring him aboard. Therefore, I can’t help but feel incredibly joyful about every aspect of securing his involvement.
“He is one of the greatest actors of his generation and I am so looking forward to seeing what he does with the role. Thanks to all the staff at the BBC, HBO, and Mam Tor Productions for making it all happen. I cannot wait to work with you all in the months ahead.”
Bell expressed his enthusiasm: “I can’t wait to be part of this remarkable creative group. Once again, Richard has created something profoundly moving and unique. It’s an honor to collaborate with him in bringing it to fruition.
The project titled “Half Man” is set to be brought to life by the skilled hands of producer Wendy Griffin. In addition, Alexandra Brodski, a renowned director from the film “Rivals“, and Eshref Reybrouck have agreed to take on directing duties for this production.
The news emerges following Gadd’s recent signing of a long-term contract with Netflix, stemming from the acclaimed performance of Baby Reindeer, a production that retells his harrowing experience with stalking and sexual abuse.
Half Man doesn’t have a release date yet. Baby Reindeer is available to stream on Netflix.
