A new sport has entered the YA space — rowing. Netflix dropped the first trailer for its upcoming series Crew Girl Wednesday morning.
In the series, Miku Martineau stars as Teagan Tao, a rowing star forced to leave her life as she knows it behind for a new start. Martineau’s Teagan balances rowing, boys and life at her new school throughout the two-minute trailer.
“Sixteen-year-old Teagan Tao (Martineau) was a rising star in single sculls rowing until a family scandal capsized her future,” the show’s synopsis reads. “Forced to relocate with her mom (Jessica Paré) to the east coast, Teagan starts over at the prestigious Easton Prep, where she’s not just an outcast but stuck a ground, [as] there’s no girls’ rowing team.
The synopsis continues, “Her only way to the water is to take the helm of the school’s notoriously dysfunctional boys’ varsity crew as their coxswain. Thrust into a world of old money and brutal competition, Teagan must find a way to lead a team that doesn’t want her and somehow bring them together. As she juggles her own rowing ambitions, the demands of the boys’ crew, and her family’s escalating complications, she also finds herself unexpectedly caught in the orbit of the team’s two most competitive rivals: the arrogant team captain, Josh Regis (Sam Braun), and the quiet but intensely driven underdog, Cam Dillinger (Kyle Clark).”
Martineau, Paré, Braun and Clark are joined by Thomas Cadrot as Coach Matt Hayden to round out the main cast.
Crew Girl was created by Vivian Lin and developed by Lin and Morwyn Brebner. Lin serves as showrunner and executive producer. Jeff Norton, Lindsay Macadam, Hillary Zwick Turner, Tony Chung and Lori Massini executive produce alongside Blue Ant Studios’ Matthew Hornburg, Mark J.W. Bishop, Jennifer McCarron, Donna Luke and Michael MacMillan. Jason Fischer and Lindsay Macadam serve as producers.
Crew Girl’s eight-episode first season premieres Sept. 10 on Netflix. Watch the trailer and find new images from the series below.
