The series, which is written by Quiz writer James Graham, is inspired by real events and promises to explore "the frayed social and political fabric of modern-day, post-Brexit Britain".
Joanne will be starring in the new series
The synopsis for the show reads: "Sherwood is a contemporary drama at the heart of which lie two shocking and unexpected killings that shatter an already fractured community and spark a massive manhunt. As suspicion and antipathy build, between lifelong neighbours and towards the police forces who descend on the town, the tragic killings threaten to inflame historic divisions sparked during the Miners' Strike three decades before."
