Daisy Jones & The Six is the latest best-selling novel to get a screen adaptation.

The hugely popular 2019 book, written by Taylor Jenkins Reid, follows the rise and fall of a fictional '70s rock band and its frontwoman Daisy Jones. The story is loosely inspired by the British-American band Fleetwood Mac.

In 2018, before the title was even released, Reese Witherspoon's production company Hello Sunshine teamed up with Amazon Prime Video to acquire the book's rights.

"As soon as I started reading Daisy Jones & The Six, I immediately fell head over heels in love with it, and I'm thrilled to be bringing it to the screen with Amazon and Jen Salke, whose passionate pursuit of the material spoke volumes," Witherspoon said in a statement at the time.

The star-studded cast is led by Riley Keough (Elvis Presley's granddaughter) as Daisy Jones and The Hunger Games' Sam Claflin as Billy Dunne.

"In 1977, Daisy Jones & The Six were on top of the world," the streaming service's official plot synopsis reads. "Fronted by two charismatic lead singers — Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne — the band had risen from obscurity to fame. And then, after a sold-out show at Chicago's Soldier Field, they called it quits. Now, decades later, the band members finally agree to reveal the truth. This is the story of how an iconic band imploded at the height of its powers."

Riley Keough, 33, takes on the titular role of Daisy Jones, a free-spirited musician who's not afraid to go against the industry's expectations of women.

Keough herself is no stranger to legendary rock stars; she's the granddaughter of Elvis Presley and daughter of Lisa Marie Presley, who died on Jan. 12, 2023, at age 54.

The actress started as a teen model in the early-to-mid 2000s, working with brands such as Christian Dior and Victoria's Secret. In 2010, at age 20, she made her film debut in the biographical drama The Runaways, which starred Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. She went on to appear in films such as The Good Doctor (2010), Magic Mike (2011), Mad Max: Fury Road (2015), The Lodge (2019) and Zola (2020).

In 2016, Keough played an escort in the first season of the Starz series, The Girlfriend Experience, which earned her a Golden Globe nomination.

The star directed her first film, the 2022 drama War Pony, alongside co-director Gina Gammell. At the Cannes Film Festival that year, the pair took home the coveted Caméra d'Or, which goes to the festival's best feature directorial debut.

For her role in Daisy Jones & The Six, Keough told PEOPLE that her mother's career was inevitably a source of inspiration.

"I was raised by somebody who did their own thing and didn't really care what other people thought," she said. "She was definitely inspirational to me."

The actress also noted that she looked to music icons like Stevie Nicks and Linda Ronstadt to create the character of Daisy Jones. The series is Keough's first venture into the music industry, and as she later revealed during a screening of Daisy Jones & the Six, she exaggerated her musical background when auditioning for the part.

"I auditioned like everybody else, and lied to them and told them l could sing," she explained.

As for her personal life, Keough met Australian stuntman Ben Smith-Petersen while filming Mad Max: Fury Road in 2012 and the couple began dating a year later. They announced their engagement in 2014 and married in February 2015.

While speaking at Lisa Marie Presley's memorial service in January 2023, Smith-Petersen revealed that the pair had quietly welcomed a daughter sometime in 2022.

"Could not be prouder to have been a part of this, and couldn't possible [sic] be more excited for you all to get a popper glimpse of it very soon," Clafin captioned an image of the series' poster, which he shared on Instagram in January 2023.

The British star began acting in 2010 and made his film debut in 2011's Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, the fourth installment of the blockbuster franchise. He had a supporting role in the 2012's Snow White and the Huntsman, which he reprised in the 2016 sequel, The Huntsman: Winter's War.

Daisy Jones & The Six isn't Clafin's first book adaptation. In 2013, he joined the Hunger Games film franchise as Finnick Odair in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 (2014) and The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2 (2015). He also starred in the 2016 romantic drama Me Before You, which is based on the novel of the same name. In 2020, he starred in the Netflix original film Enola Holmes, an adaptation of the first novel in the Enola Holmes Mysteries book series.

Clafin's other film credits include Journey's End (2017) and Adrift (2018), and he's also appeared in the fifth season of BBC's period drama Peaky Blinders.

In addition to her pursuits as a performer, Waterhouse became an entrepreneur in 2016 with the start of her accessories brand, Pop & Suki, which she co-founded with her best friend Poppy Jamie.

With her new role in Daisy Jones & The Six, the star was able to merge her passions for music and acting. "We genuinely are a full band that can play songs, which is amazing for a group of actors that didn't have these skills," she told Hot Press in May 2022. "I was absolutely drawn to the role because of the music."

As for her personal life, the star has been dating English actor Robert Pattinson since 2018. The two maintain a low profile and made their red carpet debut in 2022 at the Dior Men Fall 2023 show in Giza, Egypt.

When it came to exploring the 1970s for her role in Daisy Jones & The Six, Morrone told W Magazine: "It's a memorable and fun era for fashion and music; some of the best music was created during that time in the Sunset Boulevard scene. It was such an incredible and positive experience and I'm excited for people to see what we've been waiting years to make."

In her personal life, the star dated actor Leonardo DiCaprio from 2017 to 2022.
