Adolescence star Owen Cooper — who plays 13-year-old murder suspect Jamie Miller in the Netflix hit — is appearing in Margot Robbie’s next movie.
Jamie, of course, is at the center of Adolescence, which instantly became a global sensation on Netflix after it was released on March 13.
In the limited series — which consists of four episodes that take place in real-time and are all achieved with one camera take — Jamie is suspected in the murder of a 13-year-old female schoolmate named Katie. Episode 1 concentrates on Jamie’s arrest and interrogation, while Episode 2 follows a pair of detectives (Ashley Walters and Faye Marsay) into Jamie’s school to hopefully get some leads in the case.
Episode 3, which takes place seven months after Katie’s murder, largely takes place in a meeting room at a juvenile detention center, where a child psychologist (Erin Doherty) interviews Jamie to get a sense of the teen’s mental health before his trial.
