Sharon Horgan‘s Alex is struggling with getting older as she searches for sex and love in HBO comedy Youth.
“It looks like it’s arthritis in your lower jaw,” Harriet Walter’s character tells Alex at the beginning of the trailer. “So what next,” asks Alex. “Or is this just the start of a general decline?”
“It’s just an age thing,” replies Walter. “You have a decreased range of opening. So, no more blow jobs for you.” A clearly disappointed Alex replies, “No more for me?”
Written, executive produced and starring Horgan, Youth follows a 50-year-old divorcee’s search for sex and love whilst juggling caring for her ailing parents and parenting her should-be grown up son.
Rupert Friend also stars as Patrick, Sharlene Whyte as Sam, Aran Murphy as Ruari and Robbie Gee as Frank.
Youth will premiere with the first two epsiodes on Sunday, September 20 at 10 p.m. on HBO and stream on HBO Max.
Youth is produced by Merman (Amandaland, Bad Sisters, Vladimir). In addition to Horgan, executive producers are Faye Dorn for Merman, Jim Kleverweis, and Dawn Shadforth, who also directs.
