HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY: CAST JOINING ANYA TAYLOR JOY FOR NETFLIX DRAMA ADAPTATION REVEALED

Clive Owen, Orlando Norman and David Shields join Anya Taylor Joy in the series based on Bella Mackie’s bestselling novel.

Based on Bella Mackie’s best selling novel, How To Kill Your Family is the ultimate tale of revenge. Ambitious in scale, beautiful, filmic, and murderous. But it’s not a cold revenge about a killing machine and stylish murders.

This is someone trying to do that and stupid, complicated humanity getting in the way. Our protagonist, Grace is a modern day Gatsby, a Tom Ripley, Lorelai Lee in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. The game isn’t fair, so Grace is playing dirty. The money is a nice bonus.

Grace Bernard (Taylor-Joy) has a complicated family: her dad is Simon Artemis, a billionaire and ruthless social climber. Grace is the product of an affair Simon claims not to remember, which left Grace and her mom to fend for themselves.

When her mother dies and Grace is rejected by the people who should love her, she transforms her anger into something useful — killing off her estranged extended family via morbidly creative means. Soon, Grace is clawing her way toward revenge and a hefty inheritance. But her mission pulls her away from what she really needs.

Anya Taylor Joy said: "As soon as I turned the last page, I knew I had to be a part of bringing this story to life. After some (light) stalking of the inimitable Bella Mackie, I could not be more thrilled to be collaborating with the team that is executive producers Sally Woodward Gentle, Lizzie Rusbridger, and Emma. I am looking forward to getting our hands even dirtier."

More details will be announced in due course.
