From Executive Producer Margot Robbie, and the team behind Shameless and Promising Young Woman comes this new 10-part drama featuring Margaret Qualley, the destined for big things star of The Leftovers and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood…, in a story about the life of a single mother who escapes an abusive relationship and struggles in a low-paying job in order to be able to support her daughter.
Also starring Nick Robinson (The Kings of Summer), Anika Noni Rose (Power), Tracy Vilar (Saved), and Billy Burke (Revolution), Maid is also notable for being the first on-screen pairing of the real life mother/daughter duo of Qualley and Andie MacDowell. Check out the teaser below….
Inspired by the New York Times best-selling memoir, Maid: Hard Work, Low Pay, and a Mother’s Will to Survive by Stephanie Land, MAID follows the story of Alex, a single mother who turns to housecleaning to — barely — make ends meet as she escapes an abusive relationship and overcomes homelessness to create a better life for her daughter, Maddy. Seen through the emotional yet humorous lens of a desperate but determined woman, this series is a raw and inspiring exploration of a mother’s resilience.
Maid will be available to stream on Netflix from October 1st.
