Netflix today revealed first look images from the upcoming rom-com series, Too Much, written and directed by Lena Dunham (Girls) who co-created it with her husband Luis Felber. The series will debut on July 10 with ten episodes.

Grant (Saltburn), Kaori Momoi (The Brightest Roof in the Universe), Rita Wilson (Sleepless in Seattle), Dean-Charles Chapman (1917), Janicza Bravo (Sharp Stick), Prasanna Puwanarajah (The Crown), Leo Reich (Leo Reich: Literally Who Cares?!), Daisy Bevan (The Alienist), Naomi Watts (Feud), Rhea Perlman (Cheers), Stephen Fry (The Dropout), Emily Ratajkowski (Gone Girl), and Adwoa Aboah (Top Boy).
The synopsis reads, “Jessica (Megan Stalter) is a New York workaholic in her mid-thirties, reeling from a broken relationship that she thought would last forever and slowly isolating everyone she knows. When every block in New York tells a story of her own bad behaviour, the only solution is to take a job in London, where she plans to live a life of solitude like a Bronte sister. But when she meets Felix (Will Sharpe) – a walking series of red flags – she finds that their unusual connection is impossible to ignore, even as it creates more problems than it solves. Now they have to ask themselves: do Americans and Brits actually speak the same language? From the creator of Girls and the producers of Love Actually, Too Much is an ex-pat rom-com for the disillusioned who wonder if true love is still possible, but sincerely hope that it is.”
