While European actors have long been mainstays on American television, recent years have seen American stars gaining traction as the leads in international productions. Sandra Oh’s award-winning turn in “Killing Eve,” Carrie Anne Moss in “Wisting,” Anna Paquin in “” and Rob Lowe in “Wild Bill” are just a few examples of familiar Hollywood faces popping up on screens around Europe.
“Getting Helen Hunt on board quite simply was a massive coup. She’s an incredible actress, and she does have that weight of being a recognized talent,” says executive producer Helen Ziegler, who also produced BBC’s “The ABC Murders” starring John Malkovich as Hercule Poirot in 2018. The same applied to last year’s “Les Misérables,” starring Lily Collins, and Elizabeth McGovern in “Downton Abbey,” when it first premiered.
The series is co-produced by Canadian Bron Studios and Studiocanal’s Tandem Productions, in co-production with ZDF. “Transparent” star Amy Landecker, who next appears in the U.K. adaptation of Anais Nin’s “Little Birds” —which also stars fellow Americans Matt Lauria and David Costabile — says the tone of the Sky Atlantic series differs from American productions but is not worried that the content won’t travel.
