The new series looks poised to tackle some heavy themes.
Netflix has unveiled the star-studded cast of a dark psychological thriller titled Out of the Dust, from the mind of Intergalactic and Prisoners' Wives writer Julie Gearey.
The story unfolds in a conservative religious cult, where a "dutiful wife and mother" is largely kept unaware of the wider world, until an escaped convict crashes into her life and swiftly changes everything.
Molly Windsor (Three Girls) leads the cast as Rosie, with Sex Education star Asa Butterfield co-starring as her husband, Adam, while Fra Fee (Lost Boys and Fairies) will play prisoner Sam.
Rounding out the main cast is Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who) and Siobhan Finneran (Happy Valley) as Mr and Mrs Phillips, two characters that we know nothing about at this stage.

Could they be leaders of the cult-like community that Rosie calls home?
Out of the Dust will consist of six episodes in total and commenced filming earlier this month, with directors Jim Loach (Criminal Record) and Philippa Langdale (A Discovery of Witches) attached.
The synopsis from Netflix reads: "Rosie lives with her husband Adam and daughter in a cloistered Christian community.
"The fateful arrival of escaped prisoner Sam into her life reveals the reality and restraints of her world; perhaps this hidden religious community doesn't have her best interests at heart.
"And, as the cracks begin to appear in her marriage, Sam presents as her saviour. But with his dark criminal past, where does the greatest danger lie – with the cult or with Sam?"
Ninth Doctor actor Eccleston recently impressed with a memorable supporting role in HBO's True Detective: Night Country, while Finneran earned her second BAFTA TV Award nomination for her performance in the final season of Happy Valley.
In addition to LGBTQ+ drama Lost Boys and Fairies, Fee is known for his work on the stage and for a villainous appearance in Marvel's Hawkeye, while Windsor has recently featured in Fox's War of the Worlds and Oscar-nominated film She Said.
Butterfield wrapped up a four-year run on Sex Education last year, with other credits including Prime Video's Your Christmas or Mine films and horror flick Choose or Die.
Out of the Dust is coming soon to Netflix.
