I May Destroy You News

The BBC announced that Coel was in the early stages of developing a new show with links to her hit miniseries in 2021

In an update that is most likely for the best, the BBC announced this week that Michaela Coel is no longer developing a new series with links to her semi-autobiographical hit, I May Destroy You . Back in 2021, Piers Wenger , the network’s drama director at the time, announced to fans of the series that “there is a new show coming along” but it was “at relatively early stages.

Following a young writer named Arabella piecing her life back together after being raped, it was loosely inspired by Coel’s own experience with sexual assault. The finale was not only personal but also close to perfect, one that certainly doesn’t need to be undone or amended in any way. But at the same time, I May Destroy You was as much a hangout comedy as it was a visceral exploration of trauma—and a very good one at that.
