"PHENOMENAL" STAR-STUDDED PSYCHOLOGICAL DRAMA LANDS NEW UK STREAMING HOME

Little Fires Everywhere, the star-studded psychological drama starring Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington, has found a new streaming home in the UK.

Previously available to stream on Prime Video, the miniseries left the streaming service last month before being added to Disney+.

All eight episodes of the 2020 series are now also available on Channel 4's streaming service, meaning viewers in the UK can catch it for free with ads.

Based on Celeste Ng's 2017 book of the same name, the show follows two suburban families whose lives are set ablaze when secrets are revealed.

Per the logline, the series follows "the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and the enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives".

Rounding out the stellar cast of Little Fires Everywhere are Grey's Anatomy actor Jesse Williams, Dawson's Creek star Joshua Jackson, The Princess and the Frog star Anika Noni Rose, and Lexi Underwood.

Following its release, the series proved popular among critics and it currently has a critic score of 79% on Rotten Tomatoes from 80 reviews.

Audiences were equally taken with the show, with one reviewer on IMDb describing it as "phenomenal", adding: "I think that this show is amazing! The characters are intriguing, and it is well acted. By the time you realize the true complexity, it will leave you with "Wow!" It is very thought-provoking."

Previously speaking about playing the suburban rivals, Washington said that she and Witherspoon pushed each other on set, saying shocking things that weren't scripted.

"Part of what you're seeing is that there was safety to really push each other," she said. "So when you see that transformation happen on Reese's face, I was not saying the things that you're hearing on screen. I was saying other things to try to help her drop into that moment."

Little Fires Everywhere is available to stream now on Channel 4 and Disney+ in the UK.
