FX's "Great Expectations" Premieres Sunday, March 26 Exclusively on Hulu

Steven Knight's Vision of the Classic Charles Dickens Tale

Fionn Whitehead Stars as "Pip," Leading a Stellar Cast Featuring Olivia Colman as "Miss Havisham," Shalom Brune-Franklin, Ashley Thomas, Johnny Harris, Hayley Squires, Owen McDonnell, Trystan Gravelle, Laurie Ogden, Rudi Dharmalingam, Tom Sweet, Chloe Lea and Matt Berry

LOS ANGELES, February 7, 2023 - FX today, on the anniversary of Charles Dickens' birthday, set the premiere date for Great Expectations, Steven Knight's limited series adaptation of Dickens' classic. The series' key art was also released today.

The six-part series from FX and BBC will premiere Sunday, March 26 exclusively on Hulu in the U.S. and feature the first two episodes. Great Expectations is produced in association with the BBC who will air the series in the UK. Internationally, it will be available to stream on Star+ in Latin America and on Disney+ under the Star banner at a later date.

The newly released key art, true to FX and Steven Knight's style, features one of literature's most iconic characters, Miss Havisham ensnaring her pawns, Pip and Estella, in the headdress she still wears from her wedding that never was. Entangled in Miss Havisham's bitter web are memorable elements from the tale including the decaying Satis House, clocks stopped at 20 minutes to nine, as well as the prison ship and manacles that led Magwitch to Pip, thus beginning the story of Dickens' beloved Great Expectations.

Great Expectations is the coming-of-age story of "Pip," an orphan who yearns for a greater lot in life, until a twist of fate and the evil machinations of the mysterious and eccentric "Miss Havisham" shows him a dark world of possibilities. Under the great expectations placed upon him, Pip will have to work out the true cost of this new world and whether it will truly make him the man he wishes to be. A damning critique of the class system, Dickens' novel was published in 1861 after first releasing it in a series of weekly chapters beginning in December 1860.

Fionn Whitehead stars as "Pip," leading a stellar cast featuring Olivia Colman as "Miss Havisham," Shalom Brune-Franklin, Ashley Thomas, Johnny Harris, Hayley Squires, Owen McDonnell, Trystan Gravelle, Laurie Ogden, Rudi Dharmalingam, Tom Sweet, Chloe Lea and Matt Berry.

Knight serves as writer, and also executive producer alongside Tom Hardy, Ridley Scott, Dean Baker, David W. Zucker and Kate Crowe. Brady Hood and Samira Radsi serve as directors. Great Expectations is produced by FX Productions in association with the BBC, Scott Free and Hardy Son & Baker.
