The delicious new eight-part comedy series JULIA, inspired by the extraordinary life of legendary chef Julia Child.
The series will premiere on Sunday, April 3 at 8.30pm AEST On Demand on FOXTEL.
Inspired by Child’s remarkable life and her long-running television series The French Chef, which pioneered the modern cooking show, the series features a stunning cast led by Sarah Lancashire (Happy Valley) in the title role and joined by David Hyde Pierce (Frasier) as Child’s husband, Franz Kranz (Homecoming), Bebe Neuwirth (Frasier), Fiona Glascott (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindewald) and Brittany Bradford (Broadway’s Bernhardt/Hamlet), with guest stars including Judith Light (Transparent) and Isabella Rossellini (Blue Velvet).
