Sundance Now and AMC+ have announced the premiere date and released the trailer for the provocative new UK drama series Fifteen-Love, starring Ella Lily Hyland as Justine Pearce, a former tennis prodigy. The first two episodes will debut on both platforms on Thursday, 22 August, with subsequent episodes airing weekly.
The series follows Justine’s rise and fall in the elite world of Grand Slam tennis and explores the intense pressures of professional sports. Five years after her retirement, Justine’s peace is shattered when her former coach, Glenn Lapthorn (Aidan Turner), re-enters the limelight, prompting her to make an explosive allegation against him.
The series is created and written by Hania Elkington, directed by Eva Riley and Toby MacDonald, who also serve as executive producers alongside Jake Lushington and Roderick Seligman.
Fifteen-Love is produced by World Productions Ltd. and ITV.
