MUMBAI: Star World and Star World HD is all geared up to premiere UnREAL, an American dark comedy and reality dating series. The entire series will premiere on 19 and 20 December 2015 at 12 pm on Star World Weekend Binge, where viewers can watch the show uninterrupted. The series stars Shiri Appleby and Constance Zimmer in the lead role. The entire series will be aired on a single weekend for the binge viewers.
The provocative drama series will offer behind-the-scene glimpse into the chaos surrounding the production of a fictitious dating competition show titled as Everlasting, which happened to be a big hit with the audience. The series, co – created by Marti Noxon and Sarah Gertrude Shapiro, will find a young producer Rachel Goldberg, played by Shiri Appleby, whose sole job is to manipulate her relationships with and among the contestants to get the vital dramatic and outrageous footage that the program’s dispassionate executive producer Quinn King, enacted by Constance Zimmer, demands.
Speaking about the new show, Sarah Gertrude Shapiro asserted, “It's anyone who's ever had a job really. I mean, it's sort of about growing up in the world. I think it's truly a quandary that most people can relate to, is how do you stay yourself and respect your morals as you become an adult.”
UnREAL also stars Craig Bierko, Chet, Freddie Stroma and Adam Cromwell. The plot of the show would have Josh Kelly playing the character of Jeremy, a cameraman who is Rachel’s ex-boyfriend. Siobhan Williams enacts the character of Lizzie, Jeremy’s current fiancée and on-set makeup artist. Everlasting’s contestants include Grace played by Nathalie Kelley, who is seen winning Adam’s heart in the show. Anna played by Johanna Braddy is shown as classy and shrewd with her eye on the prize. Faith, a sensitive and vulnerable tomboy from the South is portrayed by Breeda Wool and Mary is played by Ashley Scott, a gorgeous single mom who has been unlucky in love. Arielle Kebbel will guest star as Courtney, a contestant who has no filter and isn’t on Everlasting to make any friends.
