Kate Winslet and HBO are reteaming for another Emmy-bait project.
The actress — who previously headlined Mare of Easttown and Mildred Pierce for the premium cabler — is attached to star in and executive-produce the limited series Trust, which is in development at HBO, per The Hollywood Reporter.
The drama, based on Hernan Diaz’s novel, follows “a wealthy financier who reads a novel based on his life and is upset with how he and his wife are portrayed. He hires a secretary to ghostwrite a memoir in hopes of setting the record straight. She, however, becomes aware that he’s trying to rewrite history, and his wife’s place in it.”
