Anna Paquin Will Return to Television in New Dramedy for Pop

Anna Paquin is set return to television in a new dramedy series Flack, which will air on the Pop TV network.

The 35-year-old actress has been seen in several limited series in the last few years, but this is her first major series role since True Blood!

Flack stars Paquin as the sharp and witty publicity maven, Robyn, who’s an expert at her craft but a complete self-saboteur when it comes to her personal life. Robyn’s work as a crisis PR strategist is fast-paced and unpredictable, as she counsels high-profile personalities in entertainment, fashion and sports.

“Oliver Lansley has written six of the best scripts I’ve ever read,” Anna said. “He walks that fine line between intense character-driven drama and exceptionally intelligent humor. My character, Robyn, exists in a world where there are no moral absolutes and humor is used as a sharply executed defense mechanism to maintain the illusion of perpetual control. I am incredibly excited about tackling the creative complexities of Flack as an actress and for my company CASM’s collaboration with Pop.”
