FIRST TRAILER FOR ITV'S TV SERIES THE PARTY WITH LUKE EVANS, TOM CULLEN, JOANNA SCANLAN, LINDSAY DUNCAN, LYDIA LEONARD

  FIRST THE PARTY SERIES 
TRAILER WITH LUKE EVANS AND TOM CULLEN
ITV has surprised us today with the first trailer for their upcoming new six part thriller TV series THE PARTY which boasts quite a stellar leading duo with Luke Evans and Tom Cullen! Evans plays Martin Gilmour, a journalist shaped by his lifelong friendship with the wealthy and charismatic politician Ben Fitzmaurice (Cullen). Raised alone by his working-class mum, Sylvia (Joanna Scanlan), Martin wins a scholarship to an elite boarding school, where he first meets Ben. They forge an unbreakable bond, as Ben and the Fitzmaurices give Martin the sense of belonging he has always craved. In turn, Martin remains unflinchingly loyal to Ben through even the greatest crises. Three decades on, Martin is invited to Ben’s lavish birthday party atthe Fitzmaurices' country pile. The news of the Conservative leader’s resignation threatens to derail Ben’s party, as he considers announcing his  intention to stand. Martin fears the publicity that Ben’s bid would bring, dredging up the secrets of their past with tragic consequences. The drama moves between the shocking events of the party and the police  investigation that follows, with flashbacks to Martin and Ben’s lives at school, university and London party  days. Sarah Solemani stars as Martin’s pregnant wife, Lucy. Lydia Leonard is Serena, Ben’s formidable wife, whilst Lindsay Duncan and Douglas Hodge play Ben’s parents, Lady Katherine and Lord George Fitzmaurice. It will air this Autumn!
