Jackson White to star opposite Grace Van Patten in upcoming drama series Tell Me Lies

Actor Jackson White will headline an upcoming drama series titled Tell Me Lies. The show is based on author Carola Lovering's novel of the same name.

The story follows the tumultuous eight-year relationship between Stephen DeMarco and Lucy Albright. The pair first meet in college, their relationship beginning like any typical campus romance, but they quickly fall into an addictive entanglement that will permanently affect their own lives and the lives of everyone around them.

White will play a character named Stephen, opposite Grace Van Patten's character Lucy.

Meaghan Oppenheimer will adapt the series, apart from serving as showrunner and executive producer. The series is part of a first-look deal that actor Emma Roberts and her Belletrist TV banner has signed with Hulu.

Roberts will executive produce the series along with Karah Preiss and Matt Matruski of Belletrist, Rebelle Media's Laura Lewis and Stephanie Noonan as well as Shannon Gibson and Sam Schlaifer of Refinery29.

Tell Me Lies is a 20th Television production.
