Sienna Miller and Dominic West leading a star-studded drama about high-powered legal firms battling out the terms of a celeb divorce? Count us in.
Just from the long line, we are sat for the actors’ new series, and after watching the trailer, we’re definitely clearing our schedule to watch it.
In War, Sienna and Dominic play a famous actress and tech giant who are parting ways… messily.
The trailer starts with them at a movie premiere before they’re seen in separate legal offices, and it doesn’t take long for things to get devious.
Both Sienna and Dominic, as Morgan Henderson and Carla Duval, are seen encouraging their legal teams to play dirty and secure as much money as possible.
As well as Sienna and Dominic as the leads, War boasts plenty of star power, including Celia Imrie and Nick Mohammed.
The show also sees Cillian Murphy’s son, Aran, who recently said his launch into the acting world has come quicker than expected, starring in the show.
He’s not the only young actor with famous parents taking part either, as Honor Swinton Byrne, whose parents are Tilda Swinton and playwright John Byrne.
The longline for War reads: ‘WAR is a high-stakes, legal drama following the lives of London’s most powerful lawyers as firms Cathcarts & Sons and Taylor & Byrne clash over a headline-grabbing legal battle, drawing ambitious young lawyer Jonathan “Johnny” Warren (Archie Renaux) into a ruthless world where ambition is currency, betrayal is strategy, and winning is everything.
‘Season one follows the explosive divorce of British tech entrepreneur Morgan Henderson (Dominic West) and international film star Carla Duval (Sienna Miller), as Cathcarts & Sons and Taylor & Byrne stop at nothing to secure victory for their clients.’
War will be released on HBO Max on October 1 and Sky on October 2.
