The first official trailer for Urban Myths -- a comedy series that includes a story about Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Jackson and Marlon Brando going on a road-trip together -- has been shared online.

The trailer includes the first glimpse of Joseph Fiennes as Michael Jackson -- a casting decision that was met with confusion and criticism on social media when it was confirmed last year.

Urban Myths starts 10pm GMT, 19 January on Sky Arts.
