Netflix Releases Trailer for Toxic Town Series Premiering February 27

Netflix is set to release 'Toxic Town,' a four-part limited series premiering on February 27, 2025, which dramatizes the Corby poisonings—one of the UK's most significant environmental scandals. The series, written by Jack Thorne, centers on three mothers who engage in a David and Goliath struggle for justice after their children suffer health consequences due to toxic waste from a steelworks. The cast features Jodie Whittaker, Robert Carlyle, and Aimee Lou Wood, among others, and is directed by Minkie Spiro. The trailer, accompanied by Gloria Gaynor's 'I Will Survive,' sets the tone for this gripping and emotional narrative. The story not only highlights environmental negligence but also showcases the resilience and determination of a community seeking accountability. 'Toxic Town' has been likened to 'the British Erin Brockovich' due to its poignant focus on the fight against powerful institutions.
