Paramount+ UK have released first look images and confirmed the launch date for new mystery thriller The Revenge Club (w/t), based on the debut novel The Othello Club, by J.D. Pennington.

The series stars Aimée-Ffion Edwards (Slow Horses, Peaky Blinders) and Martin Compston (Line of Duty, Mayflies, The Nest), Aoife Kennan (Vera, The Dumping Ground), Rob Malone (The Witcher, Vikings), Niamh Walsh (Smother, Jamestown), Wil Coban (The Boys in the Boat, Origin), Christina Bennington (Halo, The Game) and Eoin Duffy (The Dry, The Apprentice).

The drama follows six strangers brought together by a divorce support group, who transform from therapy-seeking victims into architects of retribution. The group’s acts of revenge escalate from mischievous pranks to deadly accidents.

Paramount's Sebastian Cardwell said: "The Revenge Club is a sharp, stylish and darkly funny thriller, brought to life by a brilliant cast and an exceptional creative team. We’re thrilled to be part of this gripping project and to champion it as a standout addition to our expanding slate of bold, original UK content."

Gaumont UK’s Jess Connell added: “We’ve loved working with Gabbie on this sharply observed emotional thriller that will resonate with anyone who’s ever had their heart broken. We’re delighted to be partnering with both Paramount+ UK and Fremantle to bring this beautifully engaging book to screen.”

The Revenge Club lands 12th December on Paramount+.
