8. We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves

Another A-list star set to make their leading TV debut with HBO, Natalie Portman is attached to star in this adaptation of Karen Joy Fowler's novel of the same name, which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize back in 2014.

The story centres on university student Rosemary Cooke (Portman), whose twin sister disappeared when she was just five-years-old, leading to a complex and rather different upbringing.

It sounds like it could be an interesting concept, but there's no denying the big draw is Portman, a bonafide star and incredibly talented actress. Another bonus is the creator of the show is Marta Kauffman, who just so happens to be the creator of one of the greatest TV shows in history, Grace and Frankie.

Oh, and some little sitcom called Friends.
