Watch The Death of Bunny Munro: Preview

He’s played a psychotic yuppie, a hot-headed Targaryen prince, and a Time Lord with anger issues. But BAFTA-winner Matt Smith may have taken on his most unhinged role yet in the darkly comic The Death of Bunny Munro. Adapted from Nick Cave’s sophomore novel, he stars as the titular lothario, a sex-addict whose nine-year-old son is foisted on him when his mother dies. Promising both gasps and laughs, we explain below how to watch The Death of Bunny Munro and binge all six episodes from anywhere when it debuts.

Exec produced by Cave, and featuring an original score from the Bad Seeds frontman in collaboration with Warren Ellis, The Death of Bunny Munro is an outrageous, tender, and occasionally squirm-inducing exploration of generational trauma and troubled father-son relationships. Fear and Loathing in Sussex, perhaps? Smith describes Bunny as utterly charming, yet “chaotic and mad and selfish and bonkers”. And he only spirals after the mother of his son (Sarah Greene) tragically dies.

That leaves him the sole caregiver to Bunny Junior (Rafael Mathé in his TV debut), his doting ride-or-die as they embark on a wild road trip around the Sussex coast, and attempting to cope with their loss: Bunny compulsively bedding women while selling cosmetics door-to-door, while his grieving son converses with his mother’s ghost. It’s not long before social care are involved, concerned about the effect that Bunny Munro's nomadic and errant lifestyle is having on the kid – particularly worrying as a serial killer lopes their way across Brighton. Eventually, he's left with an ultimatum: become a better parent, or lose everything…including his grip on reality.

Produced by Clerkenwell Films, who bowled critics over with the acclaimed Baby Reindeer last year, the phantom of toxic masculinity haunts The Death of Bunny Munroe, leaving our troubled anti-hero to reckon with his own demons (real and metaphorical), not least his relationship to his own father, Bunny Senior, and played in a neat bit of casting by Shameless star David Threlfall (a.k.a. Frank Gallagher).

Dark yet tender, and compelling performed, you won’t want to miss this Sky Original drama. You can find out how to watch The Death of Bunny Munro with the following guide, and stream every episode from anywhere in the world with a VPN.
