Game of Thrones star Sean Bean and Roots star Malachi Kirby are among the big names attached to Sky’s Fast and the Furious-style drama Curfew as the British broadcaster continues to drip out programming announcements.The eight-part drama, which follows the story of ordinary people competing in the world’s fastest, most furious, illegal night-time street race, is produced by Tiger Aspect Productions and Moonage Picturs, the indie set up by Peaky Blinders execs Will Gould, Matthew Read and Frith Tiplady.The series, which was written by Read, will see contestants race through the night from London to Scotland in their “pimped-out” vehicles to win the ultimate prize — freedom from the totalitarian government curfew that controls their lives.Adrian Lester (Riviera), Phoebe Fox (Blue Iguana) Robert Glenister (Spooks), Aimee-Ffion Edwards (Troy: Fall of a City), Rose Williams (Reign), Elijah Rowen (Vikings) and Guz Khan (Man Like Mobeen) also star in the series, directed by Peaky Blinders’ Colm McCarthy.Commissioned by Sky’s Head of Drama Anne Mensah, the series will air on Sky One and will be exec produced by Gould and Tiplady. Sky Vision will distribute internationally.Mensah said: “When Sky does dramas about car races, we do them like no other broadcaster. Funny, emotionally truthful, visceral and above all fast – Curfew is the perfect Sky One show. Matthew Read has created fantastically memorable, sometimes shocking, always fascinating characters. You’ll want every single one of them to win the race of their lives.”Read added: “Sky have been incredibly supportive throughout the development of such a bold and ambitious show and I couldn’t be more pleased by the creative team that has been assembled to deliver a story that we have filled with as much excitement, emotion and dynamism as possible.”
European pay-TV giant Sky has ordered “Curfew,” a full-throttle U.K. original set in the world of street racing. The car racers will compete in customized and weaponized vehicles as they race across the U.K. in an attempt to escape the control of a totalitarian government.Endemol Shine’s Tiger Aspect is producing alongside fledgling U.K. drama banner Moonage. The 8-parter will launch on Sky and the satcaster’s NOW TV streaming service.Each of the challengers in the illegal races are, the producers said, drawn to the dangerous world of racing for their own, desperate, reasons. Sean Bean (“Game of Thrones”) will star alongside Adrian Lester (“Riviera”), Phoebe Fox (“Blue Iguana”), and Malachi Kirby (“Roots”).Matthew Read (“Hammer of the Gods”) created the show. The cast also includes Robert Glenister (“Spooks”), Aimee-Ffion Edwards (“Peaky Blinders”), Rose Williams (“Reign”), Elijah Rowen (“Vikings”), and Guz Khan (“Borderline”).
Release Date: 1 January 2019 (UK)

#Curfew is being filmed in Liverpool today. Wandered past early this morning as the crew were setting up, didn't see Sean Bean though!
There are tanks, emergency service vehicles and supercars performing stunts in the city centre today.One huge eight-wheeled armoured vehicle was seen driving down Water Street with the Liver Building looming large in the background.Other metal plated vehicles were seen driving alongside a blue McLaren 570 GT on Rumford Street while they were being filmed for a new Sky TV drama show Curfew - due to come out next year.The TV series is being hailed as “an exhilarating new street race drama” which sees an ensemble cast including Sean Bean (Broken, Game of Thrones), Adrian Lester (Riviera, Hustle), Phoebe Fox (Blue Iguana, Intrigo: Samaria), and Malachi Kirby (Black Mirror, Roots) going head to head in an ultimate contest.The eight-part series follows the story of ordinary people competing in the world’s fastest, most furious, illegal night-time street race.Desperate for their own reasons, the challengers risk everything as they race through the night from London to northernmost Scotland in their pimped-out, weaponised vehicles to win the ultimate prize — freedom from the totalitarian government curfew that controls their lives.In the city today stunts for the show are being filmed by people riding motorbikes in front of the action and driving a Mini Cooper with no roof, both with cameras attached to the frames of the vehicles.The tank driving down Water Street had missiles attached to the top of it and crews at the scene said special effects would be being used at some point today.
