one of those situations where we get you excited about a really good show coming out, and then break the news that you won't be able to watch it for months. The eight-episode limited series will hit Hulu on March 18.
In the trailer, we finally see the fictional characters we know to come to life; Reese Witherspoon takes on the role of Elena Richardson, and Kerry Washington plays Mia Warren. The trailer looks like it'll focus more on the two women's relationship than the ones their children forge, but, then again, it's a trailer, so you never really know how the real show will shape up.
At the same event, Washington spoke about how it's been being a producer on the show,"As producers, we get to employ hundreds and hundreds of artists and activists, and we can do that in environments that are safe and embody our values."We know that our two main characters will be played by Washington and Witherspoon, but who else will play Shaker Heights' finest?
Joshua Jackson will play Elena's husband, Bill Richardson. Jade Pettyjohn, Jordan Elsass, Gavin Lewis, and Megan Stott will make up the Richardson children as Lexie, Trip, Moody, and Izzy. Lexi Underwood will play Mia's daughter Pearl, Huang Lu will be Bebe, Jesse Williams will play Joe Ryan, and Rosemarie DeWitt is Linda McGullough,
