Exploring the Dark World of ‘Influence’

The new thriller series ‘Influence’ from A+E Media Group and Raw takes a deep dive into the life of a ‘Dadfluencer’ named Andrew Cosgrove. This character, reminiscent of Don Draper from Mad Men, has curated a picture-perfect existence for his family, turning them into a global brand. However, when tragedy strikes and his daughter is kidnapped, Andrew is forced to confront his past and the consequences of his actions.

A+E Media Group has been increasing its investment in international co-productions, with ‘Influence’ being one of its latest ventures. This move follows other successful collaborations, such as The Kollective thriller with the European Alliance and an upcoming series based on Tony Parsons’ novel ‘Your Neighbour’s Wife.’ By partnering with global production companies, A+E is expanding its reach and bringing diverse stories to audiences worldwide.

Raw, known for its premium documentaries like ‘The Tinder Swindler’ and ‘Don’t F**k with Cats,’ is now delving into scripted content with ‘Influence.’ While the production company has a strong background in non-fiction storytelling, it has also found success in scripted projects like Discovery’s ‘Harley and the Davidsons’ and Channel 4’s ‘Cyberbully.’ Through ‘Influence,’ Raw is exploring the intersection of family dynamics and social media influence in a thrilling and suspenseful narrative.

Writer Thomas Martin, whose previous works include Cannes competition series ‘The Surfer’ and Apple TV+ thriller ‘Prime Target,’ drew inspiration for ‘Influence’ from a friend’s personal experience. The idea of losing one’s identity and status, especially in the age of social media, resonated with Martin and became the driving force behind the series. As Andrew Cosgrove navigates the complexities of fame and family, audiences will be taken on a harrowing journey that questions the true meaning of influence and power.

Overall, ‘Influence’ promises to be a gripping exploration of modern-day struggles and the lengths people will go to maintain their image. With A+E Media Group’s commitment to global storytelling and Raw’s expertise in captivating narratives, this series is poised to captivate audiences and leave them questioning the impact of influence in their own lives.
