Eagerly awaited Kate Winslet murder mystery Mare of Easttown will air weekly on Sky Atlantic and the NOW streaming TV service from April 19.
The seven-part crime drama follows small-town Pennsylvania detective Mare Sheehan (Winslet) as she investigates a local killing, even as her own life is disintegrating around her. Early indications are that this could be a 2022 awards contender.
Winslet has been nominated for seven Academy Awards, winning the Best Actress gong in 2008 for The Reader. This is her first TV role since award-winning HBO outing Mildred Pierce, in 2011.
Winslet also acts as executive producer, alongside series creator and writer Brad Ingelsby (The Way Back). All episodes of this limited series are directed by Craig Zobel (The Leftovers).
