Abi Morgan Legal Drama ‘The Split’ Returns for Two-Part Special
variety.comK.J. Yossman Abi Morgan’s compulsive legal drama “The Split” is set to return for a two-part special. “The Split” is focused on high-powered divorce attorney Hannah Defoe and her family.
Picking up two years after Season 3 left off – in which Hannah was going through her own divorce — audiences will reunite with the formidable lawyer in Spain, where she’s celebrating a wedding along with the rest of her family. “Set across one sun-soaked weekend, ‘The Split’ will encompass break-ups, reunions and like all good weddings, plenty of romance,” promises the logline. “As the sun rises over the glorious Spanish countryside, Hannah is compelled to banish the ghosts of her past and open herself up to the possibility of love again.
Can she find the courage to take the leap into a new future?” Nicola Walker will return as Hannah alongside Stephen Mangan, Annabel Scholey, Fiona Button, Deborah Findlay, Ian McElhinney, Kobna Holdbrook-Smith, Elizabeth Roberts and Alex Guersman.
The cast will also be joined by a bevy of new faces, including “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” actor Toby Stephens as fellow lawyer Archie Moore.
