The critically-acclaimed international hit romcom Starstruck, hailed by the Daily Mirror as “the most delightful romcom…since Bridget Jones’s diary” and declared as “the next cultural phenomenon” by Radio Times, is co-written by Rose Matafeo and Alice Snedden, and produced by Avalon. Starstruck follows Jessie (Matafeo), a millennial living in East London juggling two dead end jobs and navigating the awkward morning-after-the-night-before when she discovers the complications of accidentally sleeping with famous film star Tom (Nikesh Patel). What she thought would become an amusing anecdote soon turns into something more, as the couple realize they can’t keep away from each other. The ensemble cast also includes Sindhu Vee, Emma Sidi and Minnie Driver (“Good Will Hunting”).
