A new six-part lunar thriller, "First Woman," is currently filming and promises to captivate audiences with its high-stakes mystery. The series centers on Claire Reith, a biologist who makes history as the first woman to set foot on the moon. Her groundbreaking achievement is overshadowed by her sudden disappearance, igniting suspicions among her fellow crew members and a competing Chinese lunar base.
Back on Earth, Claire's husband, Ben, embarks on a desperate search for answers, while Helen Sadler, an investigator with the UK Space Flight Authority, begins her own inquiry. Sadler grows skeptical of the official account and uncovers deep-seated secrets within Mission Control, suggesting a conspiracy may be at play.
The drama features a star-studded cast, including Andrea Riseborough as Claire Reith and Alex Hassell as UK Prime Minister Christopher Scott, a politician navigating his own precarious position amidst the deepening crisis. Jennifer Ehle portrays the determined investigator Helen Sadler. Production is underway in Belfast, employing Studio Ulster's advanced virtual production facilities to create realistic lunar landscapes.
