Disney+ has quietly sealed a first-look agreement with Matriarch Productions, the British outfit run by actor Stephen Graham and his partner Hannah Walters. Known for the gritty intimacy of films such as Adolescence and the kinetic drama A Thousand Blows, the duo brings a distinctly British sensibility to a platform that has long courted bold, character-driven storytelling. The partnership promises to give Disney+ a steady stream of original material that leans into the raw, unvarnished performances that have become Graham's trademark, while offering Matriarch the reach of a global streaming service. Observers note that the collaboration feels like a natural extension of both parties' appetite for narratives that sit just outside the mainstream, suggesting a new chapter for the streaming giant's original slate.
