RT has announced that the highly-anticipated drama series Conversation with Friends, from the producers of global hit Normal People, will come to RT One and RT Player on Wednesday 18 May at 9.35pm. Conversations with Friends follows Frances (Alison Oliver), a 21-year-old college student, as she navigates a series of relationships that force her to confront her own vulnerabilities for the first time.
Directed by Lenny Abrahamson (Room, The Little Stranger, Frank) and Leanne Welham (Pili, His Dark Materials), produced by Element Pictures (Normal People, Room, The Favourite) and adapted from Sally Rooney's debut novel, the series stars emerging talent Alison Oliver, alongside Sasha Lane (American Honey, The Miseducation Of Cameron Post), Joe Alwyn (The Favourite, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk) and Jemima Kirke (Sex Education, Girls).
Executive producers are Ed Guiney (Normal People, The Favourite, Room, The Lobster), Emma Norton (Normal People, Rosie, The Souvenir: Part II) and Andrew Lowe (Normal People, The Favourite) for Element Pictures, Rose Garnett (Normal People, The Favourite, The Souvenir) and Tommy Bulfin (Normal People, Line of Duty, Peaky Blinders) for the BBC and Lenny Abrahamson. Catherine Magee (Normal People, Resistance, Rebellion) is series producer and Jeanie Igoe (Ramy, Miss Juneteenth, The Green Knight) is producer. Alice Birch (Normal People, Succession, Lady Macbeth), Mark O'Halloran (Rialto), Meadhbh McHugh (Asking For It) and Susan Soon He Stanton (Succession) have adapted the novel for TV.
The 12 part drama commissioned by BBC in partnership with Hulu was made in association with RT . It is co-financed by Northern Ireland Screen. Filming took place in Dublin and Belfast and Croatia.
RT Director of Broadcast and Co-Productions Dermot Horan said: RT is delighted to be working with Element Pictures again on Conversations with Friends. Sally Rooney's novels have really resonated with Irish readers and there is great expectation that this adaptation will do the same for both RT Television and RT Player viewers'.
RT , the home of great local drama, will air the series over six weeks, with two episodes each Wednesday night, from 18 May on RT One and RT Player.
