Hulu has bought U.S. rights to British comedy horror Wreck. The six-part series comes from Euston Film (Dublin Murders) and emerging British writer Ryan J.
Brown. It launch on Hulu on March 1 following a deal with distributor Fremantle. Wreck is billed as “a tense thriller, mixing comedy with a slice of slasher, set aboard a mega cruise ship.” It follows 19-year-old new recruit Jamie, as he infiltrates a 1,000-strong crew in a desperate race to find his missing sister, who worked on the same ship but vanished mid-charter.
An overworked and underpaid crew live lives of partying and excess and they remain oblivious to bloodthirsty murders taking place on board.
Oscar Kennedy (Ladhood) stars alongside Thaddea Graham (The Irregulars), Jack Rowan (Noughts + Crosses), Harriet Webb (I May Destroy You), Jodie Tyack (The Window), Louis Boyer, Anthony Rickman, Amber Grappy, Diego Andres, Peter Claffey, Miya Ocego, Warren James Dunning, Ramanique Ahluwalia and Alice Nokes.
