Guy Pearce reunites with Kate Winslet on HBO's Mare of Easttown

Deadline

A decade ago, Pearce and Winslet each won Emmys co-starring in HBO's Mildred Pierce miniseries. Now they're teaming up for another HBO limited series. Pearce replaces The Crown and Coupling alum Ben Miles, who had to leave to scheduling conflicts, playing Richard Ryan, a visiting creative writing professor who wrote a dazzling novel that won the National Book Award 25 years ago, but he has never lived up to his early promise.
