As a passionate fan of thought-provoking and culturally rich television content, I am absolutely thrilled about the upcoming Sky Original series, “Inheritance.” With a stellar cast led by Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jonny Lee Miller, Sheldon Shepherd, and Bel Powley, this five-part limited event series promises to be an unforgettable journey.
Actors Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jonny Lee Miller, Sheldon Shepherd, and Bel Powley are set to appear in the upcoming Sky Original suspenseful series titled “Inheritance.
The five-part limited series titled “Inheritance,” written and acted by Karla Crome (known for “Am I Being Unreasonable” and “Carnival Row”), is set in Bristol, U.K., and Jamaica. This production is directed by Storm Saulter (renowned for “Better Mus’ Come” and “Sprinter”) and produced jointly by Snowed-In Productions and Sky Studios.
Claudia Mbatha-Raw, a driven up-and-coming attorney, sets off for Jamaica to contest a questionable inheritance claim made by a mysterious local resident named Cudjoe East, who’s challenging Oliver Connaught, a rich, aristocratic white man, for his estate.
The course her journey takes takes an unforeseen twist as the debated property unearths a sinister mansion that has long plagued her dreams: Hope Hill, the Connaught family’s Jamaican plantation. As Claudia and Oliver delve deeper, they expose a chilling link between past atrocities and contemporary inequalities. Inheritance is billed as “an ambitious series that blends genres, fearlessly tackling the lasting impact of colonialism, weaving suspenseful mystery with the vibrant rhythm of the Caribbean.
In addition to the principal actors, Nadean Rawlins (known for “Bob Marley: One Love” and “Sprinter”), takes on the role of Mercy. Sean Gilder (“Mary & George”, “Slow Horses”) plays Tom McKenzie. Olunike Adeliyi (“The Fire Inside”, “Mike”) is cast as Patsy Dawkins, Richard Dillane (“Wolf Hall”, “The Crown”) portrays Eugene Desfrienes, Diveen Henry (“The Day of the Jackal”, “Manhunt”) plays Flora, Jack Bandeira (“Happy Valley”, “Black Mirror”) assumes the character of Kenneth Connaught, and Shantol Jackson (“Sprinter”, “Yardie”) steps into the role of Sarah.
As a fortunate member of this exceptional team, both here and in Jamaica, I find myself deeply humbled. Witnessing the talents of Gugu Mbatha-Raw, Jonny Lee Miller, Sheldon Shepherd, and Bel Powley breathe life into my characters is an unparalleled privilege. Under Storm Saulter’s inspiring guidance, our collective efforts promise to captivate audiences. I eagerly anticipate the moment we can share our work with everyone.
Snowed-In in collaboration with Sky Studios has created Inheritance. Key executives include Ruth Kenley-Letts, Jenny van der Lande, Neil Blair, Karla Crome, Storm Saulter, Sam Hoyle, Serena Thompson, Gugu Mbatha-Raw, and Jonny Lee Miller. Roxanne Harvey serves as the development producer, while Kate Ogborn is the series producer.
