Trailer Watch: Sarah Lancashire Cooks Up a Storm in “Julia,” HBO Max’s Series About Julia Child
"Julia"Sarah Lancashire is going from solving crimes in Yorkshire to revolutionizing home cooking stateside. The “Happy Valley” actress toplines “Julia,” an HBO Max series inspired by Julia Child. A new trailer for the series about the trailblazer behind “The French Chef” has been released.
“At this stage of my life, I want to feel relevant,” Julia explains. She pitches an educational cooking show that’ll host. Not everyone is sold on the idea. “Shouldn’t we go with someone with a more camera-friendly look and a less distinctive sound?” a male TV exec asks.
But Julia refuses to take no for an answer, and persists, ultimately getting a green light from a public television station in Boston. “The French Chef” goes on the air — and Julia becomes a star.
Lancashire will reprise her role as Sergeant Catherine Cawood in “Happy Valley’s” long-awaited third and final season. Sally Wainwright’s crime drama is slated to return this year.
“Julia” debuts on HBO Max March 31.
