Five-part ABC iview comedy All My Friends Are Racist, written and created by Enoch Mailangi, has kicked off production in Brisbane, with co-executive producer Leah Purcell to star.
Joining Purcell are Davey Thompson and Tuuli Narkle, who will play the lead characters: two young, affluent Aboriginal flatmates – gay social media influencer Casey and budding lawyer, Belle.
The duo are socially outcast after their online ‘burn book’, listing their racist friends, is discovered, and are then faced with a difficult decision as to who and what they are willing to lose.
Purcell will play high court judge and Casey’s mother, Justine Janelle Ray Ao.
Mailangi’s pitch for the series saw them win 2017’s Raw initiative, a First Nations writers workshop conceived by Artology with the support of Purcell, Wayne Blair and Kyas Hepworth.
Directing the project is Bjorn Stewart, with Kodie Bedford having penned the scripts with Mailangi and co-producing.

Canon be damned, “Anne With an E” is bolder, funnier, and just plain better in Season 2 as it imagines brand-new storylines for the characters laid out in L.M. Montgomery’s “Anne of Green Gables” novel. This is not to say it’s better than the book, but now that the show has established its rule-breaking formula in its first season, this time around the story — much like its titular irrepressible orphan — jumps in with both feet.
What results is a more sure-footed and vibrant narrative that allows the show to play around with its characters in the bigger historical world that lay beyond the pages. It turns out that this strategy is the show’s biggest strength. Although the source material still provides some inspiration — such as when Anne (Amybeth McNulty) scares herself with the strength of her wild imagination — the new storylines offer more adventures, more ways to develop character,...
