Chloe Sevigny plays a transgender hit
woman in the UK drama Hit & Miss – you can watch the
first episode for free before it airs.
Hit & Miss, the first
original series commissioned by recently-launched satellite channel
Sky Atlantic in Britain, will have its US premiere on DIRECTV's
Audience Network on Wednesday, July 11.
The 37-year-old Sevigny (Big Love)
plays Mia in the 6-episode series from creator Paul Abbott
(Shameless, State of Play).
According to the show's description,
Mia finds out that she fathered a son eleven years ago and her former
girlfriend is dying from cancer.
“Faced with a difficult decision, Mia
becomes the guardian to a new family forcing her to mix her killer
instincts with her newly developing maternal instincts.”
In the show's trailer, we see Mia
telling a handsome man, “I'm not like other other women,” and the
man responding, “That's why I like you.” And after a man says,
“You're like a machine, Mia,” we see the contract killer knocking
off three men.
Watch the first episode now – 2 weeks
before it airs – on DIRECTV's
YouTube channel.
