Clickbait

Clickbait is a new Netflix series that will have you gripped. Needless to say we were thrilled to meet two of its leading stars, Adrian Grenier and Betty Gabriel, who play husband and wife, with the former being taken hostage, only for a video of him to appear online threatening to kill him if it reaches 5m views.

We discuss the roles at hand, and whether Grenier can connect to the material more so like an audience member would, given the nature of the storytelling, while we also delve into a conversations about the dangers of social media.

Watch the full interview with Adrian and Betty here:
