The much-anticipated teaser for The Anomalous, a limited drama series from CeeRO World Original Productions, has officially debuted, signaling a bold new chapter in African storytelling around mental health, trauma, and emotional vulnerability.

Set in Lagos, The Anomalous follows a husband-and-wife psychotherapist duo, played by Michael Uchegbu and Keira Hewatch, as they navigate complicated patient cases while struggling with personal demons that threaten to unravel their marriage.

Director Chinedu Omorie, known for Silvertown, who also directed the four-part drama, described the series as a deep exploration into the unseen emotional burden carried by mental health professionals.

One of the co-creators of the series, Chuk Otakpor, said, “At the heart of The Anomalous is a deep question: who heals the healers? The idea of a husband-and-wife therapy team came from the need to show that even in healing spaces, love can be messy, strained, and beautifully imperfect. Keira and Michael brought a breathtaking level of nuance to that dynamic. Their chemistry isn’t just believable. They don’t perform the relationship; they inhabit it.”

The series is co-created and written by Richard Odilu (Surul’ere) and Chuk Otakpor, with additional writing by Tunray Femi (For Maria Ebun Pataki) and Jesurobo-Owie Gift Imafidon (A Place of Happiness). Supporting cast includes Ifeanyi Kalu, Felix Omokhodion, Azizat Sadiq, Frankincense Eche-Ben, Ogee Nelson, Lucy Ameh, Bryan Okoye and many more. The Anomalous teaser is now live and expected to ignite critical conversations around therapy, truth, and emotional survival in contemporary African society.
