The BBC suggests that Michaela Coel's next show may have ties to I May Destroy You

As reported by Deadline, BBC drama controller Piers Wenger (who has one hell of a job title) mentioned today during a “virtual event” that Michaela Coel is working on a new show for the Beeb that—while still very early—may have some kind of connection to Coel’s BBC/HBO co-production I May Destroy You. That’s how Deadline is framing it, at least, with Wenger saying that fans of I May Destroy You should know that “there is a new show coming along” and that “what relationship that show will have with the original series” is for Coel to decide. Wenger notes that there is a “through line to her thinking” between I May Destroy You and her previous show, the sitcom Chewing Gum, but that’s more like similar themes carried in both shows than actual Marvel-style threads tied from one to the other. Coel deciding what “relationship” this new project has with “the original series” really sounds like there would be something that actually connects I May Destroy You and this next show, but as Wenger points out, “it’s really too early to say anything specific.”
