- Peacock greenlit a new limited series titled The Break-In, written and executive produced by Megan Gallagher.
- Carnival Films will produce the series, with executive producers Gareth Neame, Nigel Marchant, Christine Sacani, and author Katherine Faulkner.
- The Break-In is adapted from a domestic mystery novel by Katherine Faulkner, following Alice Rathbone’s investigation after a home invasion.
- All Her Fault previously amassed 45 million hours viewed in its first four weeks, becoming Peacock’s biggest original launch to date.
- Lisa Katz, President of Scripted Content at NBC & Peacock, said The Break-In continues the “sophisticated, character‑driven mystery” momentum from All Her Fault.
Why it matters: Peacock gains a fresh premium mystery to sustain the momentum of its most successful original launch, while Carnival Films secures a high‑profile production; viewers get another character‑driven thriller to binge.
