First Look at Prime Video Series ‘The Girlfriend’ Starring Robin Wright and Olivia Cooke

I needed a new book to read so finding out that an upcoming Prime Video series based on a book is heading to the streaming service I knew an order for the material would be placed.

Based on Michelle Frances’ novel of the same name, The Girlfriend follows Laura (Robin Wright), a woman who seemingly has it all: a glittering career, a loving husband, and her precious son, Daniel (Laurie Davidson).

Her perfect life begins to unravel when Daniel brings home Cherry (Olivia Cooke), a girlfriend who changes everything. After a tense introduction, Laura becomes convinced Cherry is hiding something. Is she a manipulative social climber, or is Laura just paranoid? The truth is a matter of perspective.

Waleed Zuaiter, Tayna Moodie, Shalom Brune-Franklin, Karen Henthorn, Anna Chancellor, Leo Suter, and Francesca Corney make up the ensemble cast. The official teaser for The Girlfriend gives very little away but it seems like it will be an exciting thriller of an overbearing mother and a cunning female using her feminine allure to tear a momma’s boy away. I can’t wait to see it. Consider this bookmarked for an upcoming watch and book to screen breakdown for my YouTube channel.
