Fellow actors Elizabeth Banks and Matthew Macfadyen are joining forces for a brand‑new dramedy series that’s already giving deliciously chaotic energy.
Set to stream on Peacock, the debut sneak peek for “The Miniature Wife” instantly sparks memories of the 1989 family classic Honey, I Shrunk the Kids — except this time, it’s modern, darker, and far more adult in its relationship mayhem.
Based on the short story by Manuel Gonzales, the series dives into the shifting power dynamics between spouses after a high‑tech mishap triggers the ultimate marriage meltdown.
Macfadyen (Succession) and Banks (Cocaine Bear) star as Les and Lindy, a couple desperately trying to keep their relationship intact. One tiny problem — literally. Les has accidentally shrunk Lindy down to six inches tall. It’s relationship drama‑rama with a sci‑fi twist, and the trailer promises equal parts comedy, tension, and “how do we even fix this?” chaos.
