All Her Fault will film at Docklands Studios and on location around the city, starring globally acclaimed Australian TV star Sarah Snook (Succession, Predestination) and directed by renowned Minkie Spiro (3 Body Problem, Downton Abbey).

Melbourne-based, Emmy and two-time Golden Globe winning actress Sarah Snook will star in the lead role and executive produce the series, which is adapted from the bestselling novel of the same name by Andrea Mara.

All Her Fault will create more than 2,000 jobs for Victorian screen industry workers, including 510 crew and placements for emerging screen workers. The production will also support 435 local businesses and inject more than $70 million directly into the Victorian economy. Filming starts later this month.

All Her Fault opens with Marissa Irvine expecting to pick up her young son, Milo, from his first playdate with a boy at his new school. But the woman who answers the door isn't a mother she recognises. She isn't the nanny. She doesn't have Milo. And so begins every parent's worst nightmare.

Award-winning director Minkie Spiro will direct the first episode and executive produce. Joining Snook in the cast are Dakota Fanning (Ripley, The Equalizer 3), Jake Lacy (White Lotus), Abby Elliott (The Bear), Sophie Lillis (It) and Michael Peña (Unstoppable).

Megan Gallagher (Wolf) serves as writer, creator, and executive producer alongside executive producers Nigel Marchant, Gareth Neame and Joanna Strevens for Carnival Films (The Day of the Jackal, Downton Abbey), Jennifer Gabler Rawlings and Christine Sacani, producer Terry Gould and associate producer, Andrea Mara.

All Her Fault is produced by Carnival Films, which is part of Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group, and was attracted to Victoria through the State Government’s Victorian Screen Incentive.
