"Angelyne," Peacock's latest series, following "Joe vs. Carole" and "Bel-Air," premieres on the streaming service on Thursday. Another ripped from the headlines story, it follows cult icon Angelyne and her rise to fame in the 1980s and 90s.
Angelyne became famous in LA when she purchased a series of billboards around the city plastered with her image. The billboard star subsequently appeared in movies, released singles and has twice run for Governor of California.
Emmy Rossum told Insider that the series is "obviously not a biopic" and takes creative liberties with the fantastical life story of the self-made Angelyne. Martin Freeman costars alongside "The White Lotus" star Lukas Gage and "Girls" actor Alex Karpovsky.
