Michael Sheen’s performance as Andrew in Best Interests has already granted him an award! He was chosen best actor in the Series Mania Palmarès International Competition last Friday (March 24), for which he thanked in French on his Twitter:

Best Interests is set to come out this year on BBC One.

Michael and Sharon Horgan will be playing a couple in new four-part drama written by BAFTA-winner writer Jack Thorne, set to premiere next year. More below:

This is a story of a family driven apart by having to make choices no parent would ever want to make. Sharon Horgan (Catastrophe, Together) and Michael Sheen (Good Omens, Quiz) play married couple Nicci and Andrew, they have two daughters: Katie played by Alison Oliver (Conversations With Friends) and Marnie played by Niamh Moriarty (Jack Thorne’s A Christmas Carol).
