www.tvguide.co.ukI don’t have live access to current news in this moment, but I can share what’s been reported recently about One Missed Call (Missed Call) productions and adaptation news.
- Channel 5 drama Missed Call in the UK has been developing as a thriller with notable cast members, including Joanna Scanlan leading the ensemble, with additional cast announced over time. This project has been described as a tense, mother-search-for-answers narrative set around a teenager’s disappearance in France.[3][4]
- Earlier articles about a project titled Missed Call linked to Channel 5 highlighted similar themes and confirmed that prominent actors from British television were attached, signaling strong production interest and a high-profile rollout.[1][3]
- The broader “One Missed Call” concept originates from a 2003–2008 era of horror/thriller media with various international adaptations and standalone plots, including a 2008 film, which remains a separate property from any current Channel 5 drama.[5][6][7][8]
