Uma Thurman becomes the latest Hollywood A-lister to make their Netflix debut this week as she stars in new 10-part drama Chambers.

It’s the actress’ latest high-profile project in a 30-year career that’s seen her breakthrough in Dangerous Liaisons, an Oscar nomination for Pulp Fiction, and action roles in Batman & Robin and the Kill Bill movies.

‘I’ve always made diverse choices as an actress and tried to explore all genres,’ says Thurman.

In Chambers, the star, who celebrates her 49th birthday next week, turns her hand to a supernatural teen drama in the chilling story of a 17-year-old transplant patient, Sasha, played by Sivan Alyra Rose.
