EXCLUSIVE: The White Lotus star Will Sharpe is fronting a new podcast that tells the unlikely true story of a family’s stunning secrets.
Sharpe is hosting Extrasensory, Apple’s latest original podcast. The eight-episode show launches on October 28.
In 1950s England, milkman John Pollock made a shocking prophecy: his two daughters, who had passed away, would be reborn. While his wife initially dismisses him as a crank, she then gives birth to twin girls who display eerie similarities to their late sisters, and the world takes notice. Pollock’s claim draws the attention of an American scientist, who crosses the Atlantic multiple times over two decades to study the twins, and reaches a startling conclusion, what if death is only the beginning? Extrasensory searches for the only two people who might know the truth—the twins themselves.

Sharpe said, “I found this story fascinating and hope the twists and turns will keep listeners guessing, as they did me. Even as we recorded, new discoveries were being made by the production, so it was exciting to be a part of this complex psychological fable about reincarnation and so much more.”
