The 6-episode limited series Chloe will debut online on Amazon on June 24.
Show Synopsis: The series follows Becky Green (Erin Doherty from The Crown), who is obsessed with stalking her childhood friend Chloe Fairbourne’s (relative newcomer Poppy Gilbert) perfectly curated social media presence. Chloe’s charmed life, adoring husband, and circle of high-achieving friends are always just a click away, and Becky can’t resist peering into a world that contrasts so starkly with her own, as she cares for her mother, who has early onset dementia. When Chloe suddenly dies, Becky assumes a new identity and infiltrates the enviable lives of Chloe’s closest friends to find out what happened to her.
Through her alter-ego Sasha, Becky becomes a powerful, transgressive heroine; a popular, well-connected “someone” with a life-and loves-that are far more exciting and addictive than the “no-one” she is as Becky. However, the pretense soon obscures and conflates reality, and she discovers Chloe’s real life had not been nearly as perfect as it was portrayed online. As Becky gets deeper into her con, and Chloe’s inner circle, she risks losing herself completely in the game she is playing.
The cast includes Jack Farthing (Poldark).
Here is a trailer for Chloe:

Lina Emerson (relative newcomer Susanna Skaggs) is spending the summer in Tuscany, but she isn’t in the mood for Italy’s famous sunshine and fairy-tale landscape. She’s only there because it was her mother’s dying wish that she get to know her father. But what kind of father isn’t around for sixteen years? All Lina wants to do is go back home. But then she is given a journal that her mom had kept when she lived in Italy. Suddenly Lina’s uncovering a magical world of secret romances, art, and hidden bakeries. A world that inspires her, along with the ever-so-charming Lorenzo “Ren” Ferrazza, to follow in her mother’s footsteps and unearth a secret that has been kept for far too long. It’s a secret that will change everything she knew about her mother, her father—and even herself. The cast includes Stargirl alum Anjelika Washington, Robin Tunney (The Mentalist) and Owen McDonnell (Killing Eve).
The season finale of Walker will air on The CW on June 23 at 8 PM.
