Aussie drama ‘Love Me’ finds a new home on Hulu
Binge’s exclusive coming-of-age drama, Love Me, is coming to the US streamer Hulu beginning Friday, April 1st. The streamer will have the first season in its entirety.
The Australian six-episode series that stars Hugo Weaving, Bojana Novakovic, and The 100 alum, Bob Morley, is set in the awe-striking landscape of Melbourne. Viewers will experience the vibrancy of the city, as well as invest in the romantic journeys of the characters.
Bob Morley especially creates a new light of his character, Peter K., as he is a complete polar opposite of his The 100 persona, Bellamy Blake. Although if you were to fully observe Peter, you’ll see peaks of Bellamy shine through at unconventional times.
DCD Rights acquired distribution for the series’ new home on Hulu and Michael Brooks, DCD Rights Managing Director of Warner Brothers Int. Television Productions Australia shared the following in an official statement:
"“Love Me has resonated extremely well with audiences across Australia and we’re excited for the international market to get a taste of this wonderful series, starting with Hulu, who are such a powerhouse in strong, character driven drama.”"
The drama doesn’t only tackle love but zooms in strongly on grief, the pressures of age, and being career-oriented and still trying to find a happy medium with personal lives. The audience will find a familiar aura within all the characters and the subversive storylines. Director Emma Freeman made sure that the stories being told were emotionally driven but created a ‘feel-good’ but realistic approach.
