“Following ‘Summer’, viewers will be immersed in the world of The Third Day through a theatrical live event – ‘Autumn’ – to be broadcast as live on Sky Arts and online.

“Featuring members of The Third Day cast including Jude Law and Katherine Waterstone, viewers will follow the events of a single day in a cinematic broadcast that invites viewers deeper into world of The Third Day. It is created by theatrical innovators Punchdrunk and co- directed by founder and artistic director of Punchdrunk Felix Barrett and Marc Munden.

“Naomie Harris stars in a further three episodes – ‘Winter’, directed by Philippa Lowthorpe – which concludes The Third Day. In her quest to seek the truth, Helen’s (Harris) arrival on the island finds her and her family caught between the island’s deeply entrenched, splintered forces, which precipitates a fractious battle to decide its fate.”
