Written by executive producer and showrunner Amanda Peet, the series follows Ji-Yoon, played by Oh, the first woman Chair of the English department at Pembroke, a major US University.
Alongside Oh, The Chair’s cast members include Transparent star Jay Duplass, Primetime Emmy winner Holland Taylor, as well as Bonding’s Nana Mensah.
This is the first show to emerge from the massive Netflix deal Benioff and Weiss made in 2019 – and certainly looks set to show off their range. Here’s what we know about The Chair so far.
