Acorn Media Enterprises collaborates with Blinder Films on ‘Striking Out’
23 Aug 2016 : Katie McNeice
The original legal drama starring Amy Huberman, formerly known by working title ‘Cheaters’, will premiere on RTÉ in early 2017.

Acorn Media Enterprises will act as the North American co-producing partner on the series, with the US debut set for Acorn TV next year.

The four-part legal drama follows solicitor Tara, played by Huberman, whose personal and professional life is sent into disarray when she catches her fiancée and workmate Eric cheating. Eric is portrayed by Rory Keenan of ‘Peaky Blinders’. Tara then finds herself specialising in family and divorce law when she makes the move to set up her own firm.

The series is created by James Phelan (Wrecking the Rising), and written by Rob Heyland (Between the Lines, Whistleblowers), Mike O’Leary (Eipic, Misfits) and James Phelan. Cheaters will be directed by Lisa James Larsson (NBC’s Welcome to Sweden). Blinder Films team Yvonne Donohoe and Katie Holly of ‘Love & Friendship’ are producing.

‘Striking Out’ was noted as a highlight for RTÉ’s upcoming season at yesterday’s Autumn launch, which showed 65 new shows produced in Ireland in one of the broadcaster’s biggest investments in drama in six years.
