Nicholas Hoult and Daisy Edgar-Jones are set to lead a new Disney+ relationship comedy, Mosquito. From acclaimed screenwriter Tony McNamara (The Great, Poor Things), the six-part series is a sardonic look at a young couple's relationship, starring two of the hottest talents out of the U.K. at the moment, fresh off the success of Superman (Hoult) and Twisters (Edgar-Jones). The British powerhouse leads play Kate and Ed, a recently married couple whose secrets begin to reveal as daily life chips away at the personas they present - all started by an intrusive mosquito.
