Sex Education star Aimee Lou Wood's new drama Alice & Jack has dropped a first trailer for the series.

The Channel 4 drama stars Oscar nominee Andrea Riseborough and Star Wars' Domhnall Gleeson as the title characters, in what is described as a "love story for the ages".

The intriguing new trailer introduces viewers to Alice and Jack's complex relationship and how it changes over 15 years, with life getting in the way of their love for each other.

Also featuring is Wood, who plays a supporting role in the drama and is seen very briefly in the trailer. She appears to be a work colleague of Alice, but not much is given away at this point.

The show's synopsis reads: "When Alice and Jack first meet they're bound by a connection so powerful it seems nothing can break it, but will their path lead them to a place of happiness and togetherness? Or will life and their own emotional complexities get in the way?

"Honest, intimate and surprisingly funny, the series shows love in all its unexpected, technicolour, kaleidoscopic beauty."

Alongside Wood, Alice & Jack also stars Aisling Bea (This Way Up) and Sunil Patel (Stath Lets Flats) in supporting roles – with Bea seemingly playing another love interest of Jack, with whom he has a child.

The six-part romance drama, created and written by Mad Men's Victor Levin, has been in the pipeline for a while now, with filming taking place in both London and Gran Canaria during summer 2022.

Wood is set to be on our screens frequently following the end of Sex Education last year. Recently, she was cast in the much-anticipated season three of The White Lotus – starring alongside the likes of Carrie Coon and Jason Isaacs.

She will also star in comedy film Seize Them!, Netflix limited series Toxic Town and BBC Three comedy Daddy Issues, all of which are coming soon.

Alice & Jack is coming soon to Channel 4. In the US, it premieres on March 17 on PBS.
