The British drama was originally announced under the working title Boys, but has been renamed to It’s A Sin ahead of its launch next year.
Years & Years frontman Olly Alexander leads the cast, which follows a group of friends who begin a new life in London in the 80s only to find themselves growing up in the shadow of the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
Olly’s character is 18-year-old Ritchie Tozer, who is joined by Roscoe Babatunde (played by newcomer Omari Douglas), Colin Morris-Jones (Claum Scott Howells), Lydia West (Jill Baxter) and Ash (Nathaniel Curtis).
The cast also features Neil Patrick Harris, Keeley Hawes, Stephen Fry, Tracy Ann Oberman, and Shaun Dooley. “I lived through those times, and it’s taken me decades to build up to this,” says
