HBO has released the first full trailer for the upcoming series, The Undoing. The intense-looking dramatic series stars Nicole Kidman, Hugh Grant, Noah Jupe, Donald Sutherland, Edan Alexander, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Matilda De Angelis, Michael Devine, Noma Dumezweni, Lily Rabe, Edgar Ramirez, and Marcella Lentz-Pope.
The series was created by David E. Kelley, creator of tons of hit series (Ally McBeal, The Practice, and Big Little Lies), and the six episodes will be directed by Susanne Bier, who is also an executive producer and the driving force behind the series. Here’s the synopsis:
The limited series The Undoing, premiering October 25th, stars Nicole Kidman and Hugh Grant as Grace and Jonathan Fraser, who are living the only lives they ever wanted for themselves. Overnight a chasm opens in their lives: a violent death and a chain of terrible revelations. Left behind in the wake of a spreading and very public disaster and horrified by the ways in which she has failed to heed her own advice, Grace must dismantle one life and create another for her child (Noah Jupe) and her family.
This feels like the first trailer that has given us a real feel for what the series is about. I’m really looking forward to the show just based on the talent behind it. Check out the trailer below, and watch The Undoing on HBO on September 25th.
