Netflix has unveiled the premiere date and the first images of its new coming-of-age comedy/drama, Sex Education. Launching worldwide with eight, one-hour episodes on January 11, 2019, the series is a modern portrayal of sexual and romantic experiences, friendships and contemporary young adult life…and you’ll relive high school memories along the way.
Leading the cast is Gillian Anderson who plays Jean Milburn. The character is described a funny, observant and always larger than life. She is fiercely independent and has no filter when it comes to interrogating people about their personal lives, which makes her a brilliant sex therapist. She lives at home with her only son, Otis. She and her ex-husband Remi, another sex therapist, have little to do with each other unless it involves Otis’s welfare. Early on, she made a decision to never shield Otis from anything and to always speak to him like an adult. As Otis has got older and more sexually repressed, she worries that some of these parenting decisions may have backfired.
Asa Butterfield, Ncuti Gatwa, Emma Mackey, Kedar Williams-Stirling, Aimee-Lou Wood and Connor Swindells are also amongst the cast.
Check out the new images above.
