Deadline announced today that Oscar winner Kate Winslett has signed on for her next project, a limited series called ‘Trust’ coming to HBO Max. Based on Hernan Diaz’s bestselling 2022 novel of the same name, Winslet is the first to sign on for the adaptation which is still currently in development.
The TV adaptation will be executive produced by Winslet and Diaz.
“The story centers around a wealthy financier who is dissatisfied by a novel based on his life and his wife’s portrayal, so he asks a secretary to ghostwrite his memoir and set the record straight,” reads the synopsis. “The secretary, however, grows uncomfortably aware that he is rewriting history—and his wife’s place in it. Told in four different voices and genres, Trust is a narrative puzzle that subverts the notion of truth and who gets to define it.”
