Peep Show – Minnie Driver and Amandla Jahava to Headline FX Pilot of British Comedy

Minnie Driver (Speechless) and Amandla Jahava (Rap Sh*t) have been cast as the leads in FX’s Peep Show, a half-hour comedy pilot written and produced by Atlanta and What We Do in the Shadows exec producer Stefani Robinson, who also serves as showrunner. Yana Gorskaya (What We Do in the Shadows) has been tapped to direct.

Inspired by the UK series, Peep Show follows the relationship between a long-suffering assistant (Jahava) and her boss (Driver), an emotionally unstable tech entrepreneur. In the UK original, the leads were male and played by David Mitchell and Robert Webb.
