A sprawling true-crime saga, Welcome to Chippendales tells the outrageous story of Somen “Steve” Banerjee, an Indian immigrant who became the unlikely founder of the world’s greatest male-stripping empire—and lets nothing stand in his way in the process.
The star-studded cast of this series includes Kumail Nanjiani, Murray Bartlett, Juliette Lewis and Annaleigh Ashford with recurring guest stars Quentin Plair, Robin de Jesús, Andrew Rannells and Spencer Boldman alongside guest stars Nicola Peltz Beckham and Dan Stevens.
Crime thriller “Culprits” centres on family man Joe Petrus living the American dream with his fiancé and step-kids. However, unbeknownst to them, Joe was involved in a mysterious crime three years ago and now his dangerous past is about to catch up with him.
When a killer starts targeting the crew behind the crime, Joe realises it’s only a matter of time before his family is targeted. He returns to London to track down his old gang and find out who is coming after them. The stellar British cast includes Nathan Stewart-Jarrett, Niamh Algar, Gemma Arterton, Eddie Izzard and Kirby.
The deal was negotiated by ITV Head of Content Acquisitions Sasha Breslau.
