The Joan series originates in the UK and appears to be a one season series. If the ratings are good enough, could the story be continued somehow for a second season on The CW? Stay tuned.
A crime drama series set in the 1980s, the Joan TV show was created and written by Anna Symon, based on a novel by Joan Hannington. It stars Sophie Turner, Frank Dillane, Mia Millichamp-Long, Kirsty J. Curtis, Gershwyn Eustache Jr., Tomi May, Laura Aikman, and Alex Blake. As the story begins, Joan (Turner) is a fiery and uncompromising woman in her twenties who is deeply scarred and vulnerable. She is a devoted mother to her six-year-old daughter, Kelly (Millichamp-Long), but is trapped in a disastrous marriage with a violent criminal named Gary (Nick Blood). When Gary goes on the run, Joan seizes the opportunity to create a new life for herself and her daughter. Joan becomes a masterful jewel thief. She embarks on a thrilling, high-stakes journey that challenges her every limit, driven by her desire to care for her daughter and create a secure home for them both. Through her sharp intelligence, charm and talent for impersonation and performance, Joan’s life takes many twists and turns and ups and downs, filled with heartache and joy. Other characters include Boisie (Dillane), a London antiques dealer; Nancy (Curtis), Joan’s older sister and salon worker; and Albie (Eustache Jr.), an old acquaintance of Boisie who’s made a new life in Spain with his wife Val (Aikman).
