Kate Winslet higher begin practising that Delco accent once more.
5 years after she starred as small-town detective Mare Sheehan in HBO’s “Mare of Easttown,” Winslet now says there’s “a robust risk” that she’ll movie a Season 2 of “Mare” subsequent 12 months. (HBO had no remark when reached by TVLine.)
“Mare” was initially conceived as a one-off restricted collection — “it was achieved and dusted, completed,” Winslet says — however the concept of a second season got here up once more just a few months in the past: “There have been correct conversations round a timeframe when it could possibly be doable. And so I believe we most likely will do it, and that is the primary time I’ve felt that.”
Winslet confused that filming of Season 2 “would not truly be this 12 months,” however “there is a sturdy probability it could movie someday in 2027.” Beforehand, Winslet informed Deadline that she would solely revisit “Mare” if “the story was too bloody good to withstand, as a result of it took so much out of all of us filming ‘Mare’… We’ll solely do it once more if the story’s compelling sufficient.”
“Mare of Easttown” debuted on HBO in 2021 with a seven-episode season, with Winslet’s Mare Sheehan investigating the homicide of a neighborhood teen mother. It earned 16 Emmy nominations, with appearing wins for Winslet and her co-stars Julianne Nicholson and Evan Peters, but it surely was all the time billed as a restricted collection, competing as one on the Emmys that 12 months. (HBO has but to formally renew “Mare” for a second season.)
“Mare” creator Brad Ingelsby went on to create one other HBO crime drama, “Job,” which premiered final fall with Mark Ruffalo within the main function and earned a Season 2 renewal in November.
