Jodie Comer Set to Star in Series Adaptation of Sex Therapy Novel BIG SWISS at HBO

Emmy Award-winning actress Jodie Comer (Killing Eve, Free Guy, The Last Duel) has signed on to star in the HBO series Big Swiss, based on the upcoming novel by Jen Beagin. HBO landed the project, which comes from A24 and Adam McKay’s Hyperobject Industries, in a really competitive battle against 14 bidders.

The series, “Big Swiss follows a woman, who after starting a new life anonymously transcribing sex therapy sessions in Hudson, NY, becomes fixated with one of the patients, leading to an obsessive, explosive relationship between the two. Comer stars as Flavia aka Big Swiss.”

Comer will exec produce with author Jen Beagin on the project. Beagin is the author of Pretend I’m Dead and Vacuum In The Dark. She is a former housecleaner whose work inspired the character of Mona, the protagonist of her first two books.

I am a big fan of Comer, and I am always excited to see what she has coming up. Stay tuned for more info on Big Swiss as it becomes available.
