When Is Sophie Turner’s Joan Releasing? All You Need To Know About Upcoming Crime Thriller

As a die-hard fan of Sophie Turner and her exceptional acting prowess, I am beyond thrilled about the upcoming series Joan! Having witnessed her transform from Sansa Stark to Jean Grey, it’s fascinating to see her take on yet another complex character. The fact that she was filming this series during a tumultuous time in her personal life, battling the tabloid accusations of being an absent mother, only adds to my admiration for her resilience and dedication as both an artist and a mother.


Sophie Turner has captivated fans once more with her upcoming role as Joan, set in the 1980s. She portrays a single mother who resorts to crime to make ends meet for herself and her child. You might recognize the title of the show since Turner was filming it during the tumultuous custody battle she experienced with her then-husband, Joe Jonas. Their story was widely covered in the media, and Turner has even spoken openly about the impact in an interview with British Vogue.

In her own words, she expressed that while her children were in the United States, she couldn’t join them because she had to complete the project “Joan” in the UK. Turner addressed the criticism regarding her being an absent mother by stating, “Articles started popping up… It was painful as I truly struggle with every decision I make as a mom – mom guilt is very real! All I could do was remind myself that these allegations aren’t true and that I am a good mother, not someone who parties frequently.” Let’s delve into what we know about the upcoming series so far.

The storyline of Joan 

Joan Hannington, a teen mother from a violent background, often finds herself in challenging situations. Instead of adhering to rules, she exhibits cunning behavior and employs deception and disguise to maneuver through her intricate, risky criminal escapades.

Known as ‘The Godmother’ in London’s illicit market, she earned this title with her impressive exploits.
