The four-part Best Interests "explores the rights of children and the inequalities facing the U.K.’s disabled community, and tells the story of a family forced to make choices no parent would ever want to make," according to The Hollywood Reporter. Horgan and Sheen will play the parents of two daughters. "When one of the daughters develops a life-threatening condition, the doctors believe it is in her best interests to be allowed to die, but her family disagree," per The Hollywood Reporter. "And so begins a fight that will take them through every stage of a legal process, as they struggle to contemplate this huge decision. Who decides? And in whose best interests will it be?"
