Emilia Clarke To Lead New Peacock Series, PONIES
Emilia Clarke has landed a new role! The actress is set to star in the new Peacock series, PONIES.
“Set in Moscow in 1977, the series follows two “PONIES” (“persons of no interest” in intelligence speak) who work anonymously as secretaries in the American Embassy. That is until their husbands are killed under mysterious circumstances in the USSR, and the pair become CIA operatives. Bea (Clarke) is an over-educated, Russian-speaking child of Soviet immigrants. Her cohort, Twila, is a small-town girl who is as abrasive as she is fearless. Together, they work to uncover a vast Cold War conspiracy and solve the mystery that made them widows in the first place.”
No production date or release date has been announced.
