Anya Taylor-Joy is leading a Netflix adaptation of Bella Mackie’s How to Kill Your Family.

The Mad Max: Furiosa star will play the murderous Grace Bernard, the protagonist of Mackie’s book.

Synopsis reads: Grace is the forgotten child of Simon Artemis, a merciless billionaire. After a heartbreaking rejection, Grace decides to exact revenge. But will this deadly scheme take even more from Grace than she’s already lost?

“As soon as I turned the last page, I knew I had to be a part of bringing this story to life,” Taylor-Joy told Netflix. “After some (light) stalking of the inimitable Bella Mackie, I could not be more thrilled to be collaborating with the team that is executive producers Sally Woodward Gentle, Lizzie Rusbridger, and Emma. I am looking forward to getting our hands even dirtier.”

Mackie added: “It’s been thrilling to watch the characters I wrote take on new life under this magnificent creative team. Anya is the most perfect fit to play Grace: I often think she understands her better than I do.”

The series is being produced by Killing Eve maker Sid Gentle and leads a splashy Netflix slate that has just been announced at the Edinburgh TV Festival including docs on Take That and Victoria Beckham.

Mackie, a journalist and author, is EPing with Emma Moran, Sally Woodward Gentle, Lizzie Rusbridger and Lee Morris for Sid Gentle Film, while Taylor-Joy will EP for LadyKiller.

More casting will likely be incoming.
