Andrew Scott continues his remarkable hot streak with a cameo role in Netflix’s upcoming romantic comedy-drama TOO MUCH, cementing his status as one of Britain’s most sought-after actors. The star of ALL OF US STRANGERS joins an absolutely stacked ensemble cast in Lena Dunham’s latest creation, which premieres July 10th on the streaming platform.
Fresh off his critically acclaimed performance in ALL OF US STRANGERS, where he delivered a haunting portrayal of a man reconnecting with his deceased parents, Scott shows no signs of slowing down. His inclusion in TOO MUCH represents another smart career move, aligning himself with a project that brings together some of the most exciting talent working today. The series, created by Girls’ Lena Dunham alongside her husband Luis Felber, follows New York workaholic Jessica, played by Megan Stalter, as she flees to the UK after a devastating breakup and discovers an unexpected connection with musician Felix, portrayed by Will Sharpe from THE WHITE LOTUS.
The supporting cast reads like a who’s who of contemporary entertainment, with Scott appearing alongside Kit Harington, Jessica Alba, Rita Ora, and Jennifer Saunders. The ensemble doesn’t stop there, featuring Stephen Fry, Richard E Grant, Adèle Exarchopoulos, Emily Ratajkowski, Dean-Charles Chapman, and Daisy Bevan. It’s the kind of cast that signals serious ambition and quality, the type of project that attracts talent of Scott’s caliber.
Dunham’s approach to assembling this cast speaks to the collaborative spirit that seems to define Scott’s recent work. “There were so many actors that I respect that I was like, ‘Even if the character is in one episode or four episodes, I want to give them something to grab onto,'” she explained. This philosophy aligns perfectly with Scott’s recent trajectory, where he’s been selective about projects that offer meaningful creative opportunities, regardless of screen time.
The series promises to subvert romantic comedy expectations, with Sharpe noting that Dunham has incorporated “rougher edges” into the tested formula. For Scott, this represents another opportunity to work within familiar genres while bringing his distinctive intensity and emotional depth to the material. His recent career has been defined by this ability to elevate projects through his presence, whether in leading roles or memorable supporting turns.
TOO MUCH arrives at a pivotal moment in Scott’s career, following his breakout performance in ALL OF US STRANGERS and his iconic turn as the “hot priest” in FLEABAG. The Netflix series represents his continued evolution as an actor willing to take risks and collaborate with visionary creators. With Working Title behind the production, the same company responsible for classic romantic comedies, Scott finds himself part of a project that honors the genre’s legacy while pushing it in new directions.
The series debuts July 10th, offering audiences another chance to see Scott bring his unique blend of vulnerability and charisma to a new character. As his star continues to rise, TOO MUCH serves as both a showcase for his talents and a testament to his growing influence in the industry. In an era where streaming platforms are hungry for prestige content, Scott’s involvement signals that TOO MUCH has the star power and creative vision to cut through the noise.
