The series, His & Hers, is an adaptation of the bestselling novel by Alice Feeney, a writer known for her intricate and unreliable narrators. Director William Oldroyd, celebrated for his tense visual style, directed the opening episode to establish the moody aesthetic of the show.
He collaborated with showrunner Dee Johnson and executive producer and writer Bill Dubuque to translate the complex literary structure into a visual masterpiece. Tessa Thompson serves as both the lead actress and an executive producer under her Viva Maude banner, ensuring the project maintains a sharp focus.
The story follows Anna, a journalist who returns to her childhood home to cover a murder that feels uncomfortably personal. She soon crosses paths with Jack, an investigator portrayed by Jon Bernthal, as they navigate a web of shared trauma and hidden motives. The meticulous pacing of the script ensures that every revelation feels earned rather than forced for the sake of drama, creating a fan base wishing for a next chapter of His & Hers.
As the credits roll on the final episode, many viewers are searching for similar stories that explore the depths of human deception.
Essential thrillers to watch after His & Hers
If viewers were captivated by the psychological depth of this series, Sharp Objects offers a similarly haunting look at a reporter returning to a toxic hometown. For those who enjoyed the complex marital dynamics and shifting perspectives, Gone Girl remains the gold standard for unreliable storytelling in modern cinema.
Another excellent choice for viewers is The Undoing, which masterfully handles the fallout of a public scandal within a private relationship. These stories prioritize character development and atmosphere over simple jump scares, much like the journey of Anna and Jack in Dahlonega.
