Channel 4 has released first-look images and announced the star-studded cast of Summerwater, a new six-part Scottish thriller based on the critically acclaimed novel by Sarah Moss. Emmy Award-winner Dougray Scott (Crime, My Week with Marilyn), Shirley Henderson (Bridget Jones, Harry Potter), and Valene Kane (Blue Lights, Gangs of London) lead the ensemble cast in this moody, atmospheric adaptation.
Filmed on location in Scotland, Summerwater is set in a secluded loch-side holiday cabin park where tensions simmer between visiting families. As the story unfolds, it reveals private conflicts, quiet heartbreaks, and buried secrets, culminating in a devastating and unexpected climax. The series flashes back to key moments in the characters' pasts, exploring how their individual histories shape the drama of the present.
The cast also includes Arnas Fedaravičius (The White Lotus Season 3, The Last Kingdom), Anna Próchniak (The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Showtrial), Daniel Rigby (Black Mirror, Landscapers), and Gabriel Scott (Masters of the Air, House of the Dragon). The drama has been adapted by screenwriter John Donnelly (The Pass, Utopia), and directed by Robert McKillop (Guilt) and Fiona Walton (Rebus, Shetland).
Produced by Glasgow-based indie Freedom Scripted, Summerwater marks the company's debut production and promises a gripping story woven with mystery, emotional depth, and a haunting sense of place.
