Life can feel pretty hectic at times, so it’s almost an act of self-care to sit down and indulge in the thrilling twists and turns of The Little Drummer Girl, a show that also includes a healthy amount of lusty sexual tension between the main characters.
The series comes to us courtesy of the same producers responsible for the award-winning series The Night Manager (a series you should also watch immediately if you have not already) and is based on John le Carré’s best-selling spy thriller novel of the same name.
The Little Drummer Girl is packed with a pretty star-studded cast of actors, including Golden Globe winner Alexander Skarsgård (from Big Little Lies), Academy Award nominee Michael Shannon (from The Shape of Water) and BAFTA nominee Florence Pugh (from Lady Macbeth and soon to be seen in the new Little Women).
Take a look at the trailer for The Little Drummer Girl.
The series is set against the lush backdrop of the late 1970s , and follows Charmaine “Charlie” Ross (played by Pugh), a young British actress who is feeling unfulfilled and uninspired by her life and career, but who is also pretty adept at spinning tall tales.
