Paramount+ will showcase an authentic take on the teen experience next year with coming-of-age drama More Than This.
Written and co-created by teen actor Olivia Deeble, the six-part series tells the oftentimes raw story of five 17-year-old students and their teacher whose diverse worlds collide when they are thrown together into a Year 12 English class.
Deeble stars alongside 18-year-old co-creator Luka Gracie and a young cast that includes Kamil Ellis, Ellmir Asipi, Josh Heuston, Oisin O’Leary, Celine Ajobong, Tharanya Tharan, and newcomer Selena Brincat, with Bert Labonte as the teacher.
Baby Banksia is producing the series with the assistance of Big Finish Creative, Shapeshifter Studios, and the Australian Children’s Television Foundation (Actf). Charmaine Gorman and Kate Gorman are producing, with the latter also directing with John Sheedy. Jason Haigh-Ellery, David Devjak, and Bernadette O’Mahony are executive producing with the Gorman siblings.
