AIDAN TURNER hits the RIVALS red carpet

Anticipation mounts as Disney+ prepares to unveil its latest sensation this week. The star-studded adaptation of Jilly Cooper’s iconic 1988 novel RIVALS features Irish talents Aidan Turner and Victoria Smurfit, who recently graced the red carpet at the show’s premiere.

RIVALS plunges viewers into the cutthroat world of television, chronicling the fierce competition between the ambitious Rupert Campbell Black and the formidable Lord Tony Baddinham. Set to debut on Disney+ on October 18th, the series promises a gripping narrative of power, ambition, and rivalry.

Aidan Turner, a versatile Irish actor, brings his considerable talent to this high-profile project. Turner first captured audiences’ attention with his portrayal of the brooding vampire Mitchell in the supernatural drama BEING HUMAN (2009-2011). He then solidified his status as a leading man with his captivating performance as the titular character in the BBC’s historical drama POLDARK (2015-2019). Turner’s ability to embody complex characters with depth and charisma has established him as one of Ireland’s most compelling exports to the small screen.

With RIVALS, Turner adds another potentially career-defining role to his impressive television repertoire, which has consistently demonstrated his range and appeal across genres. As audiences eagerly await this latest offering, Turner’s involvement heightens expectations for what promises to be a must-watch series.
