“Welcome to Nightingale Hart.
I hope you will be very happy here.”
No, it's not the name of a small town in England but that of the talent agency that will be at the center of the British remake of the French series
Dix pour cent
.
Entitled
Ten Percent
, the series unveiled the first images of its cast in a teaser on Thursday March 31.
It would seem that the creators of the show are fans of the royal family.
A large part of the cast of
The Crown
series seems to have signed with this new agency.
Spectators will then be able to find in their own role, Emma Corrin, who plays Lady Diana in season 4 of
The Crown
, or Helena Bonham Carter, who plays Margaret, Elizabeth II's sister in seasons 3 and 4.

Some actors announced for season 5 will also appear in the remake, such as Dominic West (Prince Charles) and Olivia Williams (Camilla Parker Bowles).
To keep with the theme, it would seem that Phoebe Dynevor, who plays Daphne Bridgerton in
The Chronicle of the Bridgertons
, is also part of the cast of the series.
British humor
Alongside Buckingham Palace regulars, David Oyelowo (
Selma
), Jessica Oyelowo (
A United Kingdom
), Himesh Pasel (
Yesterday
), Kelly Mcdonald (
Boardwalk Empire
) and David Harewood (
Homeland
) will be part of the series.
For the little French note, Clémence Poésy, who appeared in
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
, should also make an appearance.
To take care of all these actors, Jack Davenport, Lydia Leonard, Maggie Steed and Prasanna Puwanarajah will take over from Camille Cottin, Grégory Montel, Liliane Rovère or Thibault de Montalembert in the role of star agents.
If the scenario is directly inspired by the French version, the creators of the series did not hesitate to add their touch of
British
humor .
Ten Percent
is due out this April 28 in the UK on Amazon Prime Video.
No information regarding its release in France has been announced at this time.
