Based on Celeste Ng’s New York Times bestseller of the same name, Little Fires Everywhere follows the intertwined fates of the picture-perfect Richardson family and an enigmatic mother and daughter who upend their lives. The story explores the weight of secrets, the nature of art and identity, the ferocious pull of motherhood — and the danger in believing that following the rules can avert disaster.

Joshua Jackson stars as Bill Richardson, a Shaker Heights attorney whose modest roots make him the perfect partner to his strong-willed wife Elena (Witherspoon), but when a custody battle breaks out from their friends and Bill offers to represent them, the couple begin having bigger problems.

The series also stars Kerry Washington (Mia Warren), Rosemarie DeWitt (Linda McCullough), Jade Pettyjohn (Lexie Richardson), Jordan Elsass (Trip Richardson), Gavin Lewis (Moody Richardson), Megan Stott (Izzy Richardson), and Lexi Underwood (Pearl Warren).
