– Minx premieres on The Roku Channel on November 11
– The comedy series is created by Ellen Rapoport
– Ophelia Lovibond, Idara Victor, and Jake Johnson are the main cast members
Minx, a highly anticipated comedy series from creator Ellen Rapoport, is set to make its grand premiere on The Roku Channel on November 11, 2021. A quirky, sex-positive period comedy, Minx is produced in partnership with Paul Feig’s Feigco and Lionsgate TV.
The series revolves around Joyce (Ophelia Lovibond), a young feminist who dreams of starting a women’s magazine. When she encounters Doug (Jake Johnson), a publisher of pornographic papers, they decide to merge their aspirations and create the first erotic magazine for women. The comedy draws inspiration from the events that transpired during the creation of contemporary women’s magazines, but adds a fictionalized twist to it.
According to Rapoport, the creator of Minx, the series is “a show that really looks at the complexities of being a woman and being a feminist and asks the question, what does it mean to be a sexual being and a feminist at the same time?” Minx explores this concept by setting the story in the 1970s, a period of changing perspectives on women’s rights and sexuality.
The main cast of Minx includes Ophelia Lovibond as Joyce, Idara Victor as Helen, Jake Johnson as Doug, and other talents such as Tristen Bankston, Joshua Harlam, Sophie Joubarne, and Samantha Smart.
For viewers interested in streaming Minx, they will need to access The Roku Channel on their smart television, streaming device, or mobile application. The Roku Channel is a free and ad-supported alternative to other streaming outlets, providing viewers with easy access to the show.
