Terri White will be adapting her memoir herself for the series scripts. She has optioned the series to Bad Wolf back in July 2020 and now, almost two years later, the series is being made with a partnership with Netflix. No directors have been revealed yet for the series. Lead star Billie Piper will also executive produce.
As mentioned above, Netflix’s Coming Undone is an adaptation of Terri White’s memoir of the same name. White was editor-in-chief of British film magazine Empire between 2015 and 2021. She also previously worked for Time Out in New York and is a columnist for the Sunday Times.
The book, which was published in 2020 by Canongate, documents the conflict between her outward success and private trauma that spiraled into a mental health crisis, which resulted in White spending time on a psychiatric ward. The memoir also reveals her childhood growing up in poverty, as well as enduring sexual and physical abuse at the hands of her mother’s partners.
As of April 2022, only Billie Piper is known to be cast in Coming Undone. Piper’s credits include Doctor Who, Penny Dreadful, I Hate Suzie and more. As expected, she’ll play the lead role of Terri White.
