The Baby is described as a “darkly funny, raw examination of motherhood, from the perspective of a woman who doesn’t want to be one.” It is co-written and executive produced by Siân Robins-Grace, who serves as a co-creator with producer Lucy Gaymer.

Check out The Baby trailer below:

“It centers around 38-year-old Natasha, who is furious that her closest friends are all having babies,” reads the synopsis. “But when she is unexpectedly landed with a baby of her own, her life dramatically implodes. Controlling, manipulative, but incredibly cute, the baby twists Natasha’s life into a surreal horror show. As she discovers the true extent of the baby’s deadly nature, Natasha makes increasingly desperate attempts to get rid of it. She doesn’t want a baby. But the baby definitely wants her.”

The miniseries stars Michelle De Swarte (The Duchess) as Natasha, Amira Ghazalla (The Rhythm Section) as Mrs. Eaves, Amber Grappy as Bobbi, Patrice Naiambana (Spectre) as Natasha’s father Lyle, Sinéad Cusack (Marcella) as her mother Barbara, Shvorne Marks (Endeavour) as Mags, Isy Suttie (Peep Show) as Rita, Tanya Reynolds (Sex Education) as Helen, Seyan Sarvan (HBO Max’s It’s a Sin) as Nour, Karl Davies (The Tower) as Jack, and Divian Ladwa (Ant-Man and the Wasp) as Fooze.
