Osun Group Adapting Yrsa Daley-Ward’s ‘The Catch’ As TV Series
Imagine a book about twin sisters, one famous, one reclusive, whose lives are shaken when they see a woman who looks like their long-lost mother.
One sister thinks it's their mother, the other suspects a trick.
They argue about it, leading to a big fight that changes their lives.
The TV show will explore family secrets, the scary feeling of recognizing someone, and choosing to be yourself.
The book was a hit, and now it's becoming a TV show with the author writing for the screen.
Osun Group is adapting Yrsa Daley-Ward’s novel ‘The Catch’ into a TV series.
Yrsa Daley-Ward will make her TV screenwriting debut.
The show explores themes of sisterhood, identity, and self-discovery.
Sheila Nortley, Osun's Head of Drama, is involved in the project.
Finding a showrunner, director, and talent is underway.
