The plot revolves around the intriguing secrets of two mothers and their families (Reese Witherspoon as Elena Richardson and Kerry Washington as Mia Warren).
Joshua Jackson, Lexi Underwood, Megan Stott, Gavin Lewis, Jordan Elsass, and Rosemarie DeWitt complete the main cast. The series is a flashback discerning all the causes that led to Elena's household literally burning down.
The first three episodes of the eight-part series were released a day earlier than planned to provide subscribers with a larger streaming repertoire.
Little Fires Everywhere was filmed in and around the city of Los Angeles, Pasadena, and Monrovia in California.
The exteriors of the Richardson house were filmed in a Tudor revival style home at 511 South Muirfield Road in Hancock Park (Los Angeles).This exclusive residential neighborhood features many stylish mansions constructed in the 1920s. You may experience a déjà vu watching the series; This 8-bedroom, 6-bath and 7,426-square-foot property has already been featured multiple times in both cinema and TV shows.
The 1977 ABC series Soap, the 1982 horror movie One Dark Night, and episodes of the series Shameless (2012), Grace and Frankie (2015), Love, The Last Tycoon (2017), and The Unicorn (2020) were filmed here.
However, all the interior was filmed on a soundstage in Los Angeles.
The designers dressed all the rooms of the manor with furniture and decor from the ’90s.
The scene of the house engulfed in flames was filmed on a studio burn stage. The crew created a smaller metal framework of the mansion enhanced with some CGI trickery.
