Richard Gadd Lands New HBO Show While Still Embroiled in ‘Baby Reindeer’ Lawsuit

Baby Reindeer director Richard Gadd isn’t leaving the limelight anytime soon after he landed a new role co-producing HBO and the BBC’s new drama Lions . The six-part drama follows the relationship of two Scottish bothers, Ruben and Niall, spanning from the 1980s to the present day, according to the logline put out by Warner Brothers . An “explosion of violence” at Niall wedding after Ruben arrives sends the viewer back through their rollercoaster 40-year relationship, starting from when they meet each other as teenagers, through the “good, bad, terrible, funny, angry, and challenging moments along the way,” the logline explained.
