As well as a notable cast, the array of talent behind the camera is seriously impressive too. In addition to her dual role, Weisz will be serving as executive producer on the show, which has been written by Alice Birch.

If her name sounds familiar, that’s because it’s been attached to some of the most exciting film and TV projects of recent years, from Florence Pugh’s breakout movie Lady Macbeth to the BBC adaptations of Sally Rooney’s Normal People and Conversations With Friends to a stint working on HBO’s Succession. More recently, she co-wrote the screenplay for The Wonder, another period piece starring Pugh, and has adapted the book The End We Start From for the screen (the film is set to star Jodie Comer, Benedict Cumberbatch and Mark Strong).

Sean Durkin, the filmmaker behind The Nest and Martha Marcy May Marlene, has directed the first two episodes (and co-directed the final episode) of the series, later passing the baton to Karyn Kusama (Jennifer’s Body), Karena Evans and Lauren Wolkstein.

When can we watch Dead Ringers?

All six episodes in the mini-series will land on Prime Video on 21 April, meaning that yes, you can binge it all in one sitting if you so wish.
