Hulu Drama Series Queenie, Based On Novel, Sets June Release Date
Queenie's reign at Hulu is about to begin.
Onyx Collective announced on Friday, as part of its Television Critics Association winter press tour appearance, that the upcoming drama series Queenie will hit Hulu on Friday, June 7, with all eight episodes releasing at once.
Based on Candice Carty-Williams' 2019 novel, Queenie stars Dionne Brown (Criminal Record) as Queenie Jenkins, a 25-year-old Jamaican British woman living in south London, straddling two cultures and slotting neatly into neither. "After a messy breakup with her long-term boyfriend," the show's logline reads, "Queenie seeks comfort in all the wrong places and begins to realize she has to face the past head-on before she can rebuild."
Queenie also stars Samuel Adewunmi (Secret Invasion) and R&B singer Bellah in her first acting role.
In addition to the snapshot above, Hulu has released four more first-look photos from Queenie. Scroll down to view them, then drop a comment and let us know if you'll check out the show!
