EXCLUSIVE: Jay Ellis (Insecure, Top Gun: Maverick) and Thomas Cocquerel (The Gilded Age, Safe Home) have joined the Sarah Snook-led Peacock series All Her Fault in series regular roles. Production is currently underway in Melbourne.

Adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name by Andrea Mara, All Her Fault opens on a plausibly terrifying situation that eventually unearths the deep secrets of a community. Marissa Irvine (Snook) arrives at 14 Arthur Avenue, expecting to pick up her young son Milo from his first playdate with a boy at his new school. But the woman who answers the door isn’t a mother she recognizes. She isn’t the nanny. She doesn’t have Milo. And so begins every parent’s worst nightmare.
