Jessica Alba is set to star in a new Netflix series based on the book "Confessions on the 7:45" by Lisa Unger. The show will be written by Charise Castro Smith ("Encanto").
The psychological thriller will follow a working mom (Alba) who meets a stranger on a train as she is commuting home who upends her life. As her life unravels and betrayals are revealed, she questions whether we can ever truly know the people closest to us.
Here's what Alba had to say about the project:
"I could not put this book down. The moment I read the line, 'If you want to keep a secret you must first hide it from yourself,' I was hooked. This book is about trying to bury secrets and the shame we carry until the truth exposes us. I can’t think of a more exciting person to partner with on this project. Charise is so ridiculously talented and truly gets every nuance under the skin of these characters and their web of lies.".Castro Smith will also serve as showrunner and executive producer. Alba will executive produce alongside Michael Rotenberg and Oly Obst for 3 Arts.
Alba is also attached to star in and executive produce another Netflix project, the upcoming action thriller "Trigger Warning", in which she plays an active-duty Special Forces officer who takes ownership of her grandfather's property after his sudden death.
