Viewers soon discover that the couple is breaking company policy with their relationship as they try to keep it hidden from their coworkers.
A sinister twist sees Emily and Luke turn on each other as Luke grabs a knife from the kitchen before blood drips onto the floor.
In a recent interview with ELLE UK Phoebe admitted that her years in the entertainment industry were the preparation she needed to understand what it could be like for a woman working at a hedge fund firm.
“I felt like I knew enough about working in a male-dominated environment,” Phoebe revealed.
“There’s an extra pressure being a woman in this industry, but I also think it motivates me to work on things like Fair Play and feel like, oh, I can have a say in moving the needle – a very small , very small to say, but we use those things to our advantage when we can.”
Netflix’s full synopsis for the Chloe Domont-directed production reads: “When a coveted promotion at a cutthroat financial firm presents itself, the supportive exchanges between lovers Emily (Phoebe Dynevor) and Luke (Alden Ehrenreich) begin to sour into something more sinister.
“As the power dynamics in their relationship change irrevocably, the couple must face the true price of success and the unnerving limits of ambition.”
However, Fair Play won’t be Phoebe’s first experience when it comes to filming raunchy scenes for TV.

Phoebe recently opened up about her raunchy scenes for Bridgerton.
She explained, “In a lot of the Regency stuff we’ve seen in the past, we see a very controlled woman.”
“There’s not a lot of sexuality there. It’s mainly the male gaze. I wanted (Daphne) to feel modern and have sexual desires, like women do, and have a lot going on that isn’t superficial.” She concluded.
The raunchy Regency series has been a huge success for Netflix since the first season dropped in late 2020, and fans are more than ready to return to the world of gossip, scandals and the raunchiest high society romances.
Fair Play will be released in select theaters on September 28 and premiere worldwide on Netflix on October 6.
