Oh, 45, will star as the title character of "Killing Eve", a new eight-episode drama series from Fleabag creator Phoebe Waller-Bridge, reported Entertainment Weekly.
"I am quivering with excitement about working with Sandra! I have been a huge fan of hers forever and am pinching myself that she is playing our Eve," Waller-Bridge, who will serve as showrunner and executive producer, said.
"She is going to be so badass in this role."
Oh will play Eve, a bored security service operative whose job is not as exciting as she thought.
The story is based on Luke Jennings" Villanelle novellas.
