Too Much: cast, plot and everything you need to know about Lena Dunham’s romcom

Too Much on Netflix stars Megan Stalter.

Too Much on Netflix sees Girls star and Catherine Called Birdy writer Lena Dunham team up with her husband Luis Felber to write this new romantic comedy series

Hacks actor Megan Stalter plays New York workaholic Jessica Salmon, who while still reeling from a break-up decides to move to London to live a life of solitude ‘like a Bronte sister’. However, life decides to throw her a curveball and in the UK she meets man-child Felix Remen (The White Lotus star Will Sharpe), a trauma-ridden, wannabe musician who sleeps with any woman who stays in the bar past closing time. The connection between them is undeniable but their relationship throws up more problems than it solves. Will the path of true love ever run smoothly for the pair? 

“This is a show that is very close to my heart — created with my husband Luis, cast with my favourite actors — the geniuses that are Meg and Will, along with a bevy of friends – and partnering again with Working Title, who are behind the romantic comedies that formed me,” says Lena Dunham. “Netflix has been so deeply supportive of the vision, which is to create a romantic comedy that makes us root for love, brings joy but also has the jagged edges of life.”
