Watch the Trailer for BBC America and AMC+’s New Series, Mood
The trailer for BBC America and AMC+’s new series, Mood has been released. The series is based on the critically acclaimed Royal Court play Superhoe by actor, writer, and singer-songwriter Nicôle Lecky.
The series follows Sasha Clayton (Lecky), who dreams of becoming a major recording artist, but right now she’s a bedroom artist: spending her days smoking weed and stalking her ex-boyfriend (Jordan Duvigneau, My Mum Tracy Beaker) on Instagram. When she is kicked out of her family home for drunkenly trying to burn her ex’s house down, Sasha becomes homeless and is forced to fend for herself, sofa-surfing with local drug dealer Saleem (Mohammad Dalmar). Everything seems to change when she meets and moves in with Instagram influencer and party girl Carly (Lara Peake, Brave New World), who introduces her to the exciting world of making money and becoming ‘famous’ on social media.
But as the gap between her online presence and her dream of being a singer continues to grow, Sasha finds herself struggling to escape this new influencer world that is more complex and darker than she could have imagined. The series is told in part through the songs that Sasha creates and features an innovative original soundtrack performed by Lecky.
Mood will premiere on BBC AMERICA and AMC+ on Sunday, November 6 at 10:00pm ET. AMC+ will premiere the first two episodes on November 6, with additional episodes available to stream on the service one week early.
