ABC is gearing up for the hugely anticipated return of the ground-breaking, political drama series Total Control, launching Sunday November 7 at 8:40pm.
Total Control features powerhouse performances from two of Australia’s popular, multi award-winning actors Deborah Mailman and Rachel Griffiths.
Applauded by critics and embraced by audiences, the first season saw political newcomer Alex Irving (Deborah Mailman) engineer a remarkable coup against Rachel Anderson (Rachel Griffiths), the Prime Minister who appointed her to the Senate.
In season two, both Alex and Rachel find themselves treading different political paths. After being dumped by her own party, Rachel relies on strategist Nick Pearce (Alex Dimitriades) to guide her political ambitions, while Alex finds herself surrounded by a new team, led by her brother Charlie (Rob Collins). But politics can be a nasty business. Will Alex’s determination and the tenacity of her grass-roots driven team be enough? Can she survive a system determined to shake everything she values? And can these political adversaries become political allies?
Reprising their roles in Blackfella Films’ critically acclaimed series are; Rob Collins, Wes Patten, Anthony Hayes, William McInnes, Huw Higginson and Lisa Flanagan. They will be joined in the corridors of power by an exciting line-up of Australian talent including; comedian Steph Tisdell in her first dramatic role, Wayne Blair (who also directs) Rob Carlton, Alex Dimitriades, Daniela Farinacci, Colin Friels, Harry Greenwood, Benedict Hardie, Brenna Harding, Anita Hegh and Vico Thai.
In the lead up to season two, all episodes of season one are available to binge watch now on ABC iview.
