W1A's John Morton has written new scripts

Here’s the first picture from the UK remake of Call My Agent!, to be known as  Ten Percent.

The image has been released alongside the news that Emma Corrin, Himesh Patel, David Harewood and Clemency Poesy have been added to the list of big names making cameos in the comedy when it drops on Amazon Prime Video this spring.

The above image shows, from left, Prasanna Puwanarajah  Maggie Steed, Jack Davenport  and  Lydia Leonard as showbusiness agents who scramble to keep their A-list clients happy and business afloat after the sudden death of their founder.

W1A creator John Morton has taken the French original – which became an international hit on Netflix – and written new storylines with a ‘unique British sensibility’ to reflect its new setting in London.

Today’s guest stars join the previously announced Helena Bonham Carter, Olivia Williams, David Oyelowo, Phoebe Dynevor, Kelly MacDonald and Dominic West

The core cast also includes Hiftu Quasem, Fola Evans-Akingbola, Rebecca Humphries, Harry Trevaldwyn and Jim Broadbent.

Call My Agent!, above,  was originally known as Dix Pour Cent in France before it was retitled for an international audience.
