Newly-launched production company Little Giant has announced its first project, with Tammin Sursock to lead drama series The Good Hustle.
Set in Sydney, the 10-parter delves into the lives of five ambitious women – Paige, Riley, Kara, Mia and Holly – as they navigate their careers as publicists at one of the most high-profile agencies in the city run by the infamous Charlie Alexander.
From the outside, the world of PR may look like a decadent dream, but in reality, these women must navigate the industry’s cutthroat competitiveness whilst also juggling their drama-filled personal lives at home.
Joining Sursok in the cast are Francesca Hung, Lisa Flanagan, Gemma Forsyth, Brooke Lee, and Sophie Bloom.
Michael Tuahine, Tim Robards, Adam Saunders, and Brayden Dalmazzone will also star.
The independently-funded project is being created and executive produced by Little Giant principal Joel Kishinevsky and produced by Alexandra Doering and Iseec Entertainment’s Elle Croxford.

Sandra Makaresz (l) and Laura Clelland.
Laura Clelland and Sandra Makaresz have been invited to participate in the second annual Kids Live Action Pitch at Miptv – the only Aussies among five teams from around the world.
They will be pitching Super Huu, the tale of 13-year-old Huu Phan, who becomes the keeper of an ancient Talisman and must win the trust of the Warrior Spirits trapped within it to control the super powers they can give him.
