Fifteen-Love, the new television drama starring Aidan Turner, has released its first-look trailer.
The six-part series, which will premiere on Prime Video on July 21, sees Turner star alongside Ella Lily Hyland in a "provocative" drama set in the world of elite tennis.

Following her retirement, she begins to work as a physiotherapist at her former academy but is thrust back into the spotlight as she makes an allegation against her former coach, Glenn (Turner).
"Justine and Glenn’s battle over the truth of their past reaches new heights as they both seek glory at the Grand Slam grass-court event of the year, and the stately world of professional tennis is rocked by lies, deceit, and a desperate bid for control," reads the synopsis.
"Examining the intense physical and mental pressures of professional sport, Fifteen-Love is a gripping and sensitive exploration of trust, power, and obsession, and what can be lost when you’ll do anything to win."
Alongside Hyland and Turner, the cast features Anna Chancellor, Jess Darrow, Tom Varey and Lorenzo Richelmy.

Hania Elkington, who created The Innocents, has written the series, with Eva Riley and Toby Macdonald on directorial duties.
Turner, who has appeared in The Hobbit trilogy and Poldark, said of Fifteen-Love: "Hania's scripts and characters are so incredibly layered and nuanced, tackling themes and issues within the world of sport that I don’t feel have been explored on screen before.
"I am excited to take on the complex role of Glenn and can’t wait to work with Ella, Hania, World Productions, Prime Video and the rest of the cast to bring this important story to life."
Fifteen-Love will stream on Prime Video from July 21.
