Sarah Snook is coming home to work in Australia after becoming a Hollywood star.
The 36-year-old will begin shooting a new TV thriller in Melbourne at the end of the month.
The Golden Globe winning actor will lead All Her Fault, a suburban thriller that follows a young mum’s nightmarish journey.
Succession star Sarah, originally from South Australia, will play the role of Marissa Irvine, who arrives at a home to pick up her young son from a playdate, a synopsis of the show states.
‘But the woman who answers the door isn’t a mother she recognises. She isn’t the nanny. She doesn’t have Milo. And so begins every parent’s worst nightmare’ it reads.
The series is based on the 2021 book of the same name by author Andrea Mara.
The show, commissioned by entertainment giant NBC Universal, will be filmed in Melbourne, with award-winning director Minkie Siro helming the first episode.
‘I feel so excited about being able to work in Melbourne again,’ Snook said.

‘The industry we have here, across all departments of cast and crew, is world class.
‘There’s always a can-do attitude and I’m particularly impressed with the sustainability efforts our team on All Her Fault are making, showing we can lower our environmental impact without compromising on quality.’
Snook burst into the spotlight with her show-stopping performance in the hit TV show Succession, where she played the daughter of a media tycoon scuffling with her siblings to gain control of the company.
And she’s not the only star to descend on Melbourne for the show.
Joining her in the cast are Dakota Fanning from the Equalizer 3, Jake Lacy from White Lotus, Abby Elliott from The Bear, Sophie Lillis from It and Michael Pena from Unstoppable.
Megan Gallagher from Wolf will serve as writer, creator, and executive producer.

She works alongside executive producers Nigel Marchant, Gareth Neame and Joanna Strevens for Carnival Films, Jennifer Gabler Rawlings and Christine Sacani, producer Terry Gould and associate producer Andrea Mara.
Filming begins in late August, and the Victorian government expects the project to create 2000 jobs for screen industry workers and inject $70m into the state economy.
‘Victoria is an in-demand destination for screen productions of all genres and sizes and we’re proud to back this major series which will boost local screen jobs and businesses and inject more than $70 million to our economy,’ Creative Industries Minister Colin Brooks said.
‘All Her Fault is just one of the productions being filmed in Victoria this year, showcasing our incredible creative talent, highly skilled crews, unique locations and world-class screen infrastructure.’
