“Adolescence” Explores Youth, Crime, and Family Dynamics


Inspired by real-life incidents involving youth violence in the U.K.

New York, N.Y. — Netflix’ latest limited series, Adolescence, has captivated audiences since its March 13 premiere, quickly climbing to the top of Netflix’s charts with over 20 million views in its first week. 

The four-part psychological crime drama, co-created by Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne, delves into the arrest of 13-year-old Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper) for the murder of his classmate Katie Leonard. The show examines the ripple effects of this tragedy on Jamie’s family, peers, and community.



Each episode unfolds in real-time through a single continuous take, directed by Philip Barantini.

This innovative format intensifies the viewing experience, immersing audiences in the raw emotions and tension surrounding the case. Graham, who also portrays Jamie’s father Eddie Miller, revealed that the series was inspired by real-life incidents involving youth violence in the U.K.


The creators aim to spark conversations about societal pressures on young men,
including influences from social media and peer dynamics and how these factors
contribute to male rage and its devastating impact on women and girls.


With its gripping narrative and unique production style, Adolescence has garnered critical acclaim and sparked discussions about youth violence and family resilience. While there’s no confirmation of a second season, Graham hinted at exploring similar themes in an anthology format.
