Netflix has debuted first look images from the new miniseries ALIAS GRACE, based on the award-winning novel by Margaret Atwood. The six part miniseries will stream globally on Netflix outside of Canada in Fall 2017. Get a first look below!

Inspired by true events, Alias Grace tells the story of Grace Marks (Sarah Gadon), a young, poor Irish immigrant and domestic servant in Upper Canada who - along with stable hand James McDermott (Kerr Logan) - finds herself accused and convicted of the infamous 1843 murders of her employer, wealthy farmer Thomas Kinnear (Paul Gross), and his housekeeper Nancy Montgomery (Anna Paquin).

The miniseries is written and produced by Sarah Polley (Take This Waltz, Away from Her) and directed by Mary Harron (American Psycho, I Shot Andy Warhol).

A Netflix and CBC original production, Alias Grace is produced by Halfire Entertainment. The executive producers are Sarah Polley, Mary Harron and Noreen Halpern. Producing alongside Polley is D.J. Carson.

The miniseries will debut in Canada on CBC on September 25, 2017.
