Marissa’s nightmare begins when she arrives at her son’s friend’s address and finds a strange woman.
The woman tells Marissa that she has never heard of either boy. It soon turns out that Marissa’s son Milo has been kidnapped.
Adelaide-born Sarah rose to fame in Succession, which ran from 2018 to 2023.

Her role in the critically acclaimed hit series earned the red-haired beauty a string of best actress awards, including an Emmy and two Golden Globes.
Earlier this year, Sarah won the Olivier Award for Best Actress for her one-woman portrayal of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray, a hit in London’s West End.
In her acceptance speech, the mother-of-one said breastfeeding her daughter in the middle of the night gave her the chance to learn the 60,000 words of the Oscar Wilde monologue that won her British theater’s biggest prize.

‘I just thought, “What am I doing? Why am I doing a 60,000-word monologue with an eight-month-old baby?” I felt so stupid,” she admitted.
“So I was doing a lot of nighttime breastfeeding. And then at night when I woke up, instead of sitting on my phone and feeding her, I was running over the lines.”
‘I find that if you learn your lines at night and then sleep on them, they come in more effectively.’
Sarah went head-to-head for the gong with fellow TV star Sarah Jessica Parker, 59, from Sex And The City, as well as Sheridan Smith, 42, Sophie Okonedo, 55, and Laura Donnelly, 41.
Sarah welcomed her first child, a daughter, with husband, Australian comedian Dave Lawson, last May.
