Emma Myers (Wednesday) will star in BBC's A Good Girl's Guide to Murder

Wednesday actress Emma Myers will direct the BBC film adaptation of Holly Jackson's A Good Girl's Guide to Murder. Myers, who plays Wednesday's werewolf roommate Enid Sinclair on the Netflix series, will star as Pip Fitz-Amobi. Smart and headstrong, she is unsure if schoolgirl Andie Bell was killed by her boyfriend Sal Singh five years ago. But if Sal Singh isn't a killer and the real killer is still on the loose, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth?



Myers (pictured) faces newcomer Zain Iqbal, who plays Ravi in ​​the film adaptation of Jackson's bestselling mystery thrillers. Red Rose's Poppy Cogan writes and Dracula (2020) actor Dolly Wells directs.

The series from The Pursuit of Love producer Moonage Pictures is one of BBC Three's most high-profile assignments in recent years.

"From the moment we announced that A Good Girl's Guide To Murder was coming to the BBC, I know there has been a huge amount of speculation from fans about who will play Pip and Ravi," said Fiona Campbell, Controller of Youth Audience, BBC iPlayer and BBC Three. "In Emma and Zain, we've found two actors who embody the characters so perfectly it will feel like they've stepped straight from the pages of Holly's books onto our screens. I can't wait for BBC Three viewers to see them in action. "

The series will be filmed in England later this year. It was written by lead writer Cogan along with Zia Ahmed, Ajoke Ibironke and Ruby Thomas, and is produced by Florence Walker.

Executive producers are Matthew Read, Matthew Bouch and Frith Tiplady for Moonage Pictures, with Lucy Richer and Danielle Scott-Haughton for the BBC, and Wells, Holly Jackson and Cogan. BBC Studios, which has a minority stake in Moonage Pictures, will handle the international distribution of the series.
