In one of Disney+ UK’s “surprise drops”, the streaming service has added brand new FX comedy ‘English Teacher‘ just one day after it launched in the USA.
‘English Teacher’ stars Brian Jordan Alvarez (‘Will & Grace’, ‘Jane the Virgin’) as “Evan Marquez”, a high school teacher in Austin, Texas who often finds himself at the intersection of the personal, professional and political aspects of working at a high school. Evan wants to be a principled person but often runs into trouble because of it.
Alongside Alvarez, the comedy stars Stephanie Koenig (‘The Flight Attendant’) as Gwen Sanders, a fellow teacher and Evan’s best friend; Enrico Colantoni (‘Galaxy Quest’, ‘Westworld’, ‘Person Of Interest’) as Grant Moretti, the principal of the high school; And Sean Patton (‘Maron’) as Markie Hillridge, the gym teacher and athletic director at the high school.
Created by Alvarez, ‘English Teacher’ is executive produced by Alvarez, Paul Simms (What We Do in the Shadows, Atlanta, Girls, Flight of the Conchords), Jonathan Krisel (Baskets, Portlandia) and Dave King (Parks and Recreation, The Good Place). It is produced by FX Productions.
‘English Teacher‘ Season 1, episodes 1 & 2 are available now on Disney+ UK, with new episodes dropping weekly.
