About ‘Great Expectations’ Series Premiere

“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. Wealth and power aren’t all they’ve been made out to be, and the cost of acquiring them can be high indeed.

Under the great expectations placed upon him, Pip will have to work out the true price of entry into this new world, and whether gaining access to it will truly make him the man he wishes to be. A damning critique of the class system, this series is adapted from the Dickens novel published in 1861.

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.
