You’re Killing Me Trailer and Key Art Revealed by Acorn TV
Acorn TV today released the trailer for its new original series You’re Killing Me, which is executive-produced by and stars Brooke Shields. The series also stars Amalia Williamson (Sullivan’s Crossing) and Golden Globe-nominee Tom Cavanagh (The Flash, Ed).
The six-episode murder mystery series is set to premiere Monday, May 18, on Acorn TV. You’re Killing Me is created by Robin Bernheim (Mother of the Bride, Princess Switch).
Set in a quaint New England town, the mystery follows bestselling novelist, Allie (Shields), who forms an unlikely alliance with an aspiring writer and podcaster, Andi (Williamson), to find the killer of a close friend.
Cavanagh stars as Jack, the new lead detective of the local Police Department and a former city slicker who is trying to acclimate to the quirks of small-town life.
You’re Killing Me joins a robust roster of hit series across Acorn TV, including recent successes Irish Blood with Alicia Silverstone, Murder Before Evensong with Matthew Lewis, Art Detectives with Stephen Moyer, Detective Ellis with Sharon D Clarke, among long-running fan-favorites Harry Wild with Jane Seymour, The Madame Blanc Mysteries with Sally Lindsay, and many more.
