We’ve been waiting for Sarah Snook to land a major TV role ever since Succession ended its run, and our prayers have finally been answered! The Emmy-winning actress is getting ready to lead Peacock’s thriller series All Her Fault, based on Andrea Mara’s novel of the same name.

Snook will lead the series as Marissa Irvine, a woman whose life takes a wild turn when she shows up to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate with a boy at his new school.

“The woman who answers the door isn’t a mother she recognizes. She isn’t the nanny. She doesn’t have Milo. And so begins every parent’s worst nightmare,” reads Peacock’s official logline.

Megan Gallagher is coming on board as creator and writer of this series, and she’ll executive produce it alongside Snook, Nigel Marchant, Gareth Neame, and Joanna Strevens for Carnival Films, plus Jennifer Gabler Rawlings, Christine A. Sacani, and Minkie Spiro, who’ll direct the first episode.

Snook is best known for her portrayal of Shiv Roy on HBO’s hit series Succession, which won her one Emmy, two Golden Globes, and multiple other accolades. Following its finale, she led the Olivier Award-winning West End play The Picture of Dorian Gray, which she’ll transfer to Broadway next year.
