Today, we were provided a trailer for Netflix‘s “Toxic Town” and some first-look images from the four-part limited drama series that will be available to stream later this month. Taking a page from real life, the story is based on the Corby poisonings, which is considered one of the biggest environmental scandals in the United Kingdom. Industrial waste connected to the steelworking industry was improperly contained and led to a huge bump in birth defects.

The nifty cast assembled for “Toxic Town” consists of Jodie Whittaker (“Doctor Who”), Aimee Lou Wood (“Sex Education”), Robert Carlyle (“The Full Monty”), Rory Kinnear (“The Diplomat”), Stephen McMillan (“Boiling Point”), Lauren Lyle (“Outlander”), Joe Dempsie (“Game of Thrones”), Michael Socha (“This Is England”), Brendan Coyle (“Downton Abbey”), Matthew Durkan (“Wedding Season”), Claudia Jessie (“Bridgerton”), and Karla Crome (“Carnival Row”).

Veteran television director Minkie Spiro (“The Plot Against America,” “Barry“) helms the show written by Jack Thorne (“His Dark Materials“), and co-writing with Throne on Episode 3 is Amy Trigg.

Netflix’s synopsis for the limited series reads:

“Based on the real-life story of one of the UK’s biggest environmental scandals, ‘Toxic Town’ is the story of the people at the heart of the Corby poisonings. Focusing on the mothers, who took on a David and Goliath battle for justice, the series traces through the years of their fight as a terrible truth comes to the surface.”

Thorne might sound familiar to “Star Wars” fans as he once worked on a script that eventually morphed into “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” after major overhauls from J.J. Abrams and Chris Terrio.

As a reminder, “Toxic Town” is a limited series with 4 episodes that will premiere globally on February 17 exclusively on Netflix.
