Unchosen

Unchosen is a British psychological thriller television series created and written by Julie Gearey, released on Netflix on 21 April 2026. The six-part series stars Molly Windsor as Rosie, a woman living within a strict, isolated religious community whose life is disrupted by a chance encounter with an escaped convict, played by Fra Fee. The series premiered on Netflix on 21 April 2026. Upon release, it became a global streaming success, reaching number one in 69 countries. Inspired by real-life experiences in high-control religious communities, the show borrows specifically from the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church and other conservative groups to inform its themes of indoctrination and trauma. The production further established this connection by filming key scenes in a former Plymouth Brethren gospel hall in Harrow, London, and actor Asa Butterfield reportedly studied documentaries on the organization to prepare for his role.
