            HBO has been killing it recently with their new series, Westworld but there’s another show on the way for the network that looks to be one of the potential best for 2017. The first trailer has arrived for Big Little Lies which is best on the best-selling novel written by Liane Moriarty about three women whose lives intersect in ways that will change them forever.

            The limited series has a stacked cast that includes many award winning and nominated actresses including Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Nicole Kidman and Shailene Woodley. The show is said to be a brilliant take on ex-husbands and second wives, mothers and daughters, schoolyard scandal and the dangerous little lies we tell ourselves to survive. Sounds incredibly interesting and I love this trailer so much. It’s also directed entirely by Jean-Marc Vallee who previously directed Dallas Buyers Club, Demolition and Wild, which starred Witherspoon and Dern as well. He’s a brilliant character director so his involvement excites me even more.

            Big Little Lies is slated to air next year but no official date has been announced yet. Along with the talent we’ve already listed, the limited series also stars Alexander Skarsgard, Adam Scott and Zoe Kravitz. Check out the first trailer below!
