Sundance Now and AMC+ are set to debut the British supernatural series “Domino Day: Lone Witch” on June 27, 2024. This modern-day drama, set and filmed in Manchester, England, stars BAFTA-nominated Siena Kelly as Domino Day, a young witch with a mysterious secret.
The six-part series centers on Domino, a powerful witch who must feed on human energy for survival. In a unique twist, she turns to dating apps not for love but as a means to find her next meal. The show explores Domino’s struggle to manage her need to feed while also being pursued by a coven of witches concerned about the potential harm she could inflict on humans.
The local coven, led by Kat (Alisha Bailey), is determined to bring Domino into their fold. They enlist the aid of Kat’s ancient ancestors, practitioners of a forbidden form of magic, to understand and control Domino’s powers. Both the coven and Domino face repercussions if they fail to convince her to join their ranks.
Domino’s ex-boyfriend, Silas (Sam Howard-Sneyd), further complicates things. Their relationship is described as “dangerous,” and his return to Domino’s life creates an atmosphere of tension and uncertainty.
The series also introduces Leon (Percelle Ascott), a potential love interest for Domino, and Cal (Darren Tighe), the untrustworthy proprietor of a spell shop. As the story progresses, Domino’s powers spiral out of control, endangering both herself and those around her.
“Domino Day: Lone Witch” is created and written by Lauren Sequeira, with Eva Sigurdardottir and Nadira Amrani directing.
