Baby Reindeer is out now on Netflix worldwide. The response has been overwhelming, and I cannot express how much it meant for me to work with Richard, Jess, and our incredible cast + crew! I am so thrilled that people are seeing what I saw in this story years ago. Pure heart 🖤

When a struggling comedian shows an act of kindness to a vulnerable woman, it sparks a suffocating obsession which threatens to wreck both their lives. Baby Reindeer, from the makers of The End of the Fucking World, premieres April 11.
