A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder Is Coming to Netflix
Netflix today announced that it will premiere A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder later this year in its markets worldwide, including the U.S. The BBC commissioned the series, which will first premiere in the UK and Ireland on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer.
A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder is produced by Moonage Pictures (Obsession, The Gentlemen), one of BBC Studios’ invested production labels. It is co-produced with ZDFneo and Netflix.
Poppy Cogan adapted the six-episode season, which is currently in post-production, and Dolly Wells directed it. A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder is based on the hugely successful New York Times bestselling mystery YA novel by Holly Jackson.
Emma Myers (Netflix’s Wednesday and Family Switch) plays Pip Fitz-Amobi, opposite newcomer Zain Iqbal as Ravi.
Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by her boyfriend, Sal Singh. Case closed. The police know he did it. Everyone in town knows he did it.
But smart and single-minded Pip Fitz-Amobi isn’t so sure, and she’s determined to prove it. And if Sal Singh isn’t a murderer and the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth?
In addition to Emma Myers and Zain Iqbal, the cast includes Anna Maxwell Martin, Gary Beadle, Mathew Baynton, India Lillie Davies, Rahul Pattni, Henry Ashton, Mitu Panicucci, Orla Hill, Ephraim O.P. Sampson, Carla Woodcock, Yasmin Al-Khudhairi, Jackson Bews, Jessica Webber, Matthew Khan, Georgia Aaron, Oliver Wickham, Adam Astill, and Annabel Mullion.
The show is produced by Florence Walker, and the executive producers include Matthew Read, Matthew Bouch, and Frith Tiplady for Moonage Pictures, with Lucy Richer and Danielle Scott-Haughton for the BBC, Jonas Melcher for ZDFneo and Dolly Wells, Holly Jackson and Poppy Cogan.
