Normal People (2020) watch online

Normal People is a romantic drama limited series based on the 2018 novel of the same name by Sally Rooney. It was written by Rooney, Alice Birch and Mark O'Rowe, and directed by Lenny Abrahamson and Hettie Macdonald. The series follows the relationship between Marianne Sheridan (Daisy Edgar-Jones) and Connell Waldron (Paul Mescal), who attend the same secondary school and the same university.

The series was greenlit in 2019, with Edgar-Jones and Mescal announced to star. The remaining cast was rounded out soon after Rooney was confirmed as one of the series' writers, alongside Birch and O'Rowe.

Macdonald was then announced as a director with Abrahamson, continuing his long-standing relationship with the series' producers, Element Pictures. Principal photography began in May 2019 and concluded in February 2020, with filming locations including County Sligo, Dublin, Sant'Oreste, and Luleå.

Normal People first premiered in the United Kingdom on 26 April 2020, on BBC Three. Its episodes began airing weekly on RTÉ One in Ireland from 28 April until June 2, and it premiered in the United States on Hulu on 29 April. The series received positive reviews, primarily for its cast performances: Mescal was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor at the 72nd Primetime Emmy Awards and won for Best Actor at the 67th British Academy Television Awards.
