Claudia Jesse: Last News

Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent ITV in the U.K. has acquired “Bali 2002,” a new four-part drama exploring the everyday heroes directly impacted by the terrorist bombings on the Indonesian island’s tourist hotspots 20 years ago. Represented by Banijay Rights, the drama stars Rachel Griffiths (“Total Control”), Richard Roxburgh (“Rake”) and Claudia Jesse (“Bridgerton”). It will air on the new streaming service ITVX next year. “Bali 2002” was co-produced by Banijay labels, Endemol Shine Australia and Screentime, and marked the first original drama co-commissioned by the Australian streamer Stan and commercial TV group 9Network. The series premiered last month on Stan.

Two years after making a splash as one of the biggest Netflix hits of all time, regency romance “Bridgerton” is back. Much like in the novels by Julia Quinn, from which the series is adapted, the sophomore installment focuses on Anthony (Jonathan Bailey), the eldest Bridgerton son, in his quest for a bride.
