An intense trailer has been released for the psychological thriller limited series The Girl Before, starring Gugu Mbatha-Raw, David Oyelowo, Jessica Plummer, and Ben Hardy, with recurring roles from Ian Conningham, Amanda Drew, Mark Stanley, Rakhee Thakrar, Ben Addis, and Natasha Atherton. The series is directed by Lisa Brühlmann, who has worked on episodes of Killing Eve, Castle Rock, and Servant. The story is based on the 2016 novel of the same name by J.P. Delaney, and was adapted by Delaney and co-writer Marissa Lestradem.

Here’s the full synopsis:

"The Girl Before" tells the story of Jane (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), who gets the chance to move into a beautiful, ultra-minimalist house designed by architect (David Oyelowo) –the one catch being that occupants have to abide by his list of rules. When Jane makes the shocking discovery that her predecessor Emma died in the house, she begins to question if her fate will be the same as the girl before...

This looks like a fascinating thriller series. It’s got a great cast and an intriguing story. I look forward to watching. Check out the trailer below, and catch The Girl Before when it begins streaming on HBO and HBO Max on February 10, 2022.
