Stars line up for BBC TV thriller

GUGU Mbatha-raw and David Oyelowo will star in an adaptation of psychological thriller The Girl Before for BBC1.

The four-part series has been created, written and executive-produced by JP Delaney, adapted from his own best-selling novel of the same title.

The series will tell the story of Jane, played by The Morning Show star Mbatha-raw, who gets the chance to move into a beautiful, ultra-minimalist house designed by an enigmatic architect, played by Selma actor Oyelowo.

However, occupants have to abide by his list of exacting rules.

Mbatha-raw said: “I’m so excited to work with this amazing team on such a compelling story in my debut role as actor/ producer.”
