Kate Winslet has shed new light on the possibility of a second season of HBO's critically-acclaimed crime drama 'Mare of Easttown'. The actress and star of the show hinted at the strong likelihood of production resuming in 2027, citing "conversations around a timeframe when it could be possible" that revolved during her directorial debut 'Goodbye June'.
Winslet's comments come after HBO's head of drama, Francesca Orsi, revealed earlier this year that discussions were underway about continuing the show. Orsi noted that it might not be on the heels of where Mare Sheehan ended but with years having passed for the character. "Who is she now?" was the question at hand.
Interestingly, Winslet's remarks also suggest a possible connection between 'Mare of Easttown' and Ingelsby's other hit show 'Task', starring Mark Ruffalo as FBI agent Tom Brandis. The actress mused that it wouldn't surprise her if Mare Sheehan walked into a Wawa where Tom was working, highlighting the potential for their worlds to intersect.
While further details remain under wraps, Winslet's suggestion of a 2027 production timeline marks an exciting possibility for fans of 'Mare of Easttown'. As the series creator Brad Ingelsby previously teased a storyline involving the characters' worlds crossing paths, it seems that HBO is taking steps to bring this vision to life.
