Yowzah. If the series is as good as the trailer makes it look, I will be bingeing The Other Black Girl, a psychological thriller based on Zakiya Dalila Harris’s New York Times best-selling novel of the same name — even though shows and films in this genre give me the creeps and often freak me out (as they are supposed to do).

Anyhoo, The Other Black Girl follows Nella (Sinclair Daniel, Bull, Madam Secretary), a young Black woman working as an editorial assistant at a White NYC publishing firm. From getting coffee and pain relievers, to making copies and handling whatever her bosses want, Nella is often marginalized, and she’s over it and tired of being the only Black girl at the company.

So how thrilled is Nella when she is introduced to new employee Hazel (Ashleigh Murray, Riverdale, Katy Keene), another Black girl. Things start off well, and the bonding and girl empowerment are great — until odd stuff starts to happen and paranoia starts to set in for Nella. Is she just imagining being watched and followed, or is someone surreptitiously keeping tabs on her? As the weirdness continues, and as Hazel’s star begins to rise, Nella discovers something sinister is going on at the company…

The Other Black Girl, a Hulu Original, premieres in the US in its entirety on Wednesday, September 13, exclusively on Hulu. (You can add it to your watchlist now.)

Executive produced by Rashida Jones (Claws, Angie Tribeca), the series costars Karina Willis (The Game), Kate Owens (Special Report), Alyshia Ochse (True Detective), Hunter Parrish (Quantico), and Eric McCormack (Will & Grace), amongst others.
