A British remake of the French comedy series Call My Agent is in the works.
Prime Video UK tweeted a few hours ago, “Prepare yourself for all the drama in the life of a talent firm with star clients and agency conflict. The hilarious new #TenPercent arrives April 28th!”
The show’s fun-packed trailer introduces some recurring actors as well as A-list cameo appearances including Helena Bonham Carter, Jack Davenport, Dominic West, Maggie Steed, Prasanna Puwanarajah and many more. Watch the video below:
Ten Percent focuses on a small London talent agency in Nightingale Hart as it strives to keep up with a fast-paced industry. An unexpected tragedy finds the agency’s employees thrown into personal and professional distress.
