Disney+ UK has announced May UK premiere date for limited series ‘Good American Family‘ Starring ‘Grey’s Anatomy’s Ellen Pompeo, alongside Mark Duplass (‘The Morning Show’) and Imogen Faith Reid.
Told from multiple points of view, as a means to explore issues of perspective, bias, and trauma, this compelling drama is inspired by the disturbing stories surrounding a Midwestern couple who adopts a girl with a rare form of dwarfism.
But as they begin to raise her alongside their three biological children, mystery emerges around her age and background, and they slowly start to suspect she may not be who she says she is. As they defend their family from the daughter they’ve grown to believe is a threat, she fights her own battle to confront her past and what her future holds, in a showdown that ultimately plays out in the tabloids and the courtroom.
Ellen Pompeo, Mark Duplass and Imogen Faith Reid take the lead roles. Dulé Hill (‘The West Wing’, ‘Suits’), Christina Hendricks (‘Mad Men’, ‘Good Girls’), Sarayu Blue (‘Expats’, ‘The Shrink Next Door’) and Jenny O’Hara (‘Big Love’, ‘The Mindy Project’, ‘Transparent’) are recurring guest stars.
The series is created by Katie Robbins (‘The Affair’, ‘Sunny’), and executive produced by Robbins and Sarah Sutherland (‘The Affair’, ‘Sunny’), who are co-showrunners. Ellen Pompeo executive produces through her production banner Calamity Jane with Laura Holstein. Andrew Stearn, Dan Spilo, Niles Kirchner and Mike Epps also executive produce. Liz Garbus directed and executive produced the pilot. It is produced by 20th Television.
‘Good American Family‘ premieres Wednesday, 7th May 2025 exclusively on Disney+ in the UK, with all episodes dropping as a boxset. The drama launches March 19, on Hulu in the USA.
