Alicia Silverstone Uncovers Dark Family Secrets in Trailer for IRISH BLOOD
Acorn TV has released the first trailer for Alicia Silverstone’s Irish Blood, which dives deep into family drama and buried secrets.
Silverstone stars as Fiona Sharpe, a divorce lawyer whose life takes an unexpected turn when she receives a message from the father who abandoned her on her 10th birthday. That message pulls her to Ireland, where the truth is far murkier—and more dangerous—than she ever imagined.
The synopsis reads: "Divorce lawyer Fiona Sharpe (starring Alicia Silverstone) receives a message from her estranged father, embarking on a journey to Ireland.
“There she learns key truths about her father as well as a family that doesn’t know she exists, and, moreover, the story of abandonment that has shaped her entire life – was a lie. A lie intended to protect her and her mother from her father’s shady business dealings. Fiona resolves to uncover the full truth about her father and reconnect with the parent she only thought she knew..."
The six-episode series comes from creators John Krizanc and Christina Ray, with episodes directed by Molly McGlynn and produced by Deadpan Pictures and Shaftesbury.
The cast also includes Jason O'Mara, Wendy Crewson, and Ruth Codd, and it’s all shot on location in Ireland, which looks stunning.
Silverstone teased, "Irish Blood is the story of a woman discovering herself and confronting her past after traveling abroad unexpectedly. I love how unpredictable the storytelling feels and the combination of drama, humor, and suspense my character experiences."
The series will be released on August 11, 2025
