Paramount+ has this morning released the official trailer for the upcoming original UK series The Revenge Club, ahead of its exclusive debut on Paramount+ in UK and Ireland on 12th December.
Starring Martin Compston, Aimée-Ffion Edwards and Meera Syal, the darkly comic six-part series is produced by Gaumont and follows six lonely, hapless strangers brought together by a divorce support group, each reeling from betrayal and heartbreak. With little in common beyond their emotional baggage, they form an unlikely bond and come up with a wildly misguided idea: to take revenge on the people who broke their hearts. What starts as a cathartic outlet quickly spirals into something far more chaotic, as their retribution escalates from petty pranks – forged exam papers, tarot cons, and rat invasions – to deadly accidents. As the group’s plans grow bolder, the line between justice and chaos begins to blur – and someone might just take things too far. THE REVENGE CLUB is a wickedly fun revenge thriller that dares to ask: what if getting even felt better than falling in love?
