I, Jack Wright makes for UKTV

UKTV have releases taken a peek into the upcoming U&Original series, I, Jack Wright…

The six-part production will air on specialist crime drama channel, Alibi. The series is written by Chris Lang and will premiere on television in early 2025.

I, Jack Wright has a star-studded cast with Nikki Amuka-Bird taking the lead as Sally Wright, alongside John Simm as Gray Wright and Gemma Jones as Rose Wright. Trevor Eve takes the title role of Jack Wright, with Daniel Rigby as John Wright and Ruby Ashbourne Serkis as Emily Wright.

Jack Wright (Eve) is a powerful and successful businessman, who leaves his family in disarray when they learn of his suicide. When the provisions of Jack’s final will and testament are made known, his third wife, Sally (Amuka-Bird), and two sons, Gray (Simm) and John (Rigby), are shocked to discover they have been largely cut out of Jack’s enormous fortune. As DCI Morgan (Lloyd) and DC Jones (Kingsman) delve further into the case, they realise Jack’s cause of death was in fact murder.

Their sights turn to the Wright family, where the mother of all feuds is beginning. As each family member becomes more reckless and desperate in their bid to own a piece of Jack’s legacy, dark secrets and resentments are revealed with explosive consequences.

“I, Jack Wright is a propulsive, darkly comic and moving murder mystery family drama which offers many twists and turns as one family deals with treachery and hidden agendas from all involved.” – UKTV
