Conversation With Friends, a Hulu/BBC miniseries out now. Like the 2020 sensation , this series is adapted from a novel by author Sally Rooney. And like that show, Conversations With Friends is a six-hour advertisement for being depressed in Ireland, with an Anthropologie aesthetic and an almost surreal abundance of sex scenes.Conversation risks bringing together a horny, armchair-philosopher illuminati, three powerful fandoms united in the desire to fuck in oversized knits.

Taylor Swift’s boyfriend Joe Alwyn stars in BBC and Hulu series Conversations with Friends which begins tonight at 10pm.The plot is based on Sally Rooney’s novel of the same name about two students whose lives become intimately entangled with a married couple. Joe, 31, plays the role of Nick Conway, a married actor who gets caught in a web of infidelity. But while Joe’s character’s life will be wrung out on screen for all to see, his relationship with Taylor, 32, is low-key and fans are often left in the dark.

Whether Paul Mescal and Phoebe Bridgers are engaged or not, they are clearly just as in love as ever and don’t care who knows it. The Normal People actor and his singer-songwriter girlfriend, who have been dating for two years, were pictured leaving a yoga class in Los Angeles last week but the hot and sweaty action didn’t stop once they left the studio. With both of their yoga mats tucked firmly under his arm (we love a man who can multitask), Paul, 26, swooped Phoebe, 27, into his available arm and planted a kiss on the musician, who in turn went in for the kill passionately with one hand around his neck and the other on his waist. Moments earlier, Phoebe had emerged from the yoga class with a huge smile on her face so the exercise – and Paul – must be doing something right.The couple have kept fans guessing about the status of their relationship as the engagement rumours continue to swirl. Last month, the stars attended Coachella music festival in California where Phoebe reportedly introduced Paul to others as her ‘fiance’. A partygoer claimed that the pair made no secret of the fact they were engaged, according to The Sun, but she hasn’t been seen wearing an engagement ring. Paul and Phoebe were first linked in May 2020 when the indie musician watched Sally Rooney’s Normal People.She tweeted: ‘Finished Normal People and now I’m sad and horny – oh, wait…’Irish actor Paul responded simply with: ‘I’m officially dead.’The exchange quickly led to a blossoming friendship and the two collaborating on Phoebe’s Savior Complex music video.Phoebe later admitted to NME that she thought Paul was a ‘cute boy’ after watching his hit BBC series, and that her heart did ‘a little pitter-patter’ when he followed her back on

Frances and Connell were classmates! Conversations With Friends‘ Alison Oliver walked the halls alongside none other than Normal People’s Paul Mescal when the actors both attended The Lir Academy in Dublin, Ireland.

If, like us, you spent 2020 obsessing over Normal People, then you'll be hooked on Conversations With Friends, coming to BBC Three later this month.The new series – based on the novel of the same name – was also written by Normal People's author Sally Rooney and directed by Lenny Abrahamson, and follows the story of students Frances and Bobbi, ex-girlfriends who become entangled in the relationship of an older couple. With the novel winning Sally a Young Writer of the Year award, Conversations With Friends is sure to keep viewers gripped over the coming weeks.

Caroline Framke Chief TV CriticOn the most basic level, it makes sense that Hulu’s “Conversations With Friends” would try to echo what made its “Normal People” adaptation so successful. Once again enlisting director Lenny Abrahamson and writer Alice Birch, and once again starring a female actor (Alison Oliver) who resembles author Sally Rooney and a male one specifically poised to become a breakout thirst object (Joe Alwyn), “Conversations With Friends” follows the “Normal People” pattern so closely that it often feels more like a faded impression rather than its own series.

Conversations With Friends, based on a Sally Rooney book, which is out May 15, Alison Oliver’s character Frances moves quietly through life, surveying every situation and person before making a move. In person—or over Zoom, at least—Oliver jumps right into our conversation with a contagious excitement. You can’t blame her. This is a breakthrough role for the 24-year-old Cork, Ireland, native, who graduated from the Lir National Academy of Dramatic Art in Dublin in 2020 and nabbed an audition for Conversations With Friends just a few months later.
