Saoirse Monica Jackson: From Derry Girls to Netflix show The Decameron
Zosia Mamet and Saoirse-Monica Jackson in The Decameron on Netflix.
She shot to fame as the frank and feisty Erin in one of TV’s most-beloved shows. Now Saoirse-Monica Jackson is building on the global success of Derry Girls with a leading role in a new series on Netflix.
The Decameron offers a very different but no less lively sense of dramedy. Set during the height of the Black Plague in 14th-century Florence, the series centres on a group of nobles and their servants, invited to sit out the pestilence with a wine-drenched holiday in a lavish Italian villa.
