Amazon Studios has released a teaser trailer for Mammals, the upcoming dark comedy drama starring James Corden and Sally Hawkins. The video features a chef whose life completely changes after finding out about his wife’s secrets. The series will be available for streaming on November 11, exclusively on Prime Video.
Mammals hails from Tony Award winner Jez Butterworth. It centers around the complexities of marriage, like the sadness, grief, tension, love, friendship, betrayal, and realism that come with it. Joining Corden and Hawkins are Melia Kreiling and Colin Morgan.
“In the series, revelations and secrets come to light as the complexity of modern marriage and fidelity are exposed,” reads the synopsis. “In a world of 8 billion, what happens after we’ve found ‘the one?’ Can we stay true to the promises we strive to keep when, after all, aren’t we all just Mammals?
Mammals follows the story of Jamie, a chef whose world implodes when he discovers shocking secrets about his pregnant wife, Amandine. Jamie finds himself hunting for answers with the help of his brother-in-law Jeff. Through this hunt, the cracks in Jeff’s marriage to Jamie’s sister Lue also widen.”
The series is directed by Stephanie Laing (Made for Love, Physical). It is produced by Street Hassle in association with Vertigo Films and Fulwell 73.
