HBO has released the official trailer and key art for the original limited series THE REGIME, starring Academy Award®-winner Kate Winslet, written by Will Tracy, and directed by Stephen Frears (101, 102 and 104) and Jessica Hobbs (103, 105 and 106). The six episode series debuts SUNDAY, MARCH 3 (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET/PT) on HBO and will be available to stream on Max.
The darkly comedic six-episode series tells the story of life within the walls of a modern authoritarian regime as it begins to unravel. After not leaving the palace for quite some time, Chancellor Elena Vernham (Kate Winslet) has grown increasingly paranoid and unstable when she turns to a volatile soldier, Herbert Zubak (Matthias Schoenaerts), as an unlikely confidant. As Zubak’s influence over the chancellor continues to grow, Elena’s attempts to expand her power eventually result in both the palace and the country fracturing around her.
Cast include Kate Winslet, Matthias Schoenaerts, Guillaume Gallienne, Andrea Riseborough, Martha Plimpton, and Hugh Grant.
Credits: Executive producers are Will Tracy, who also serves as showrunner and writer, Frank Rich, Tracey Seaward, Kate Winslet, Stephen Frears, and Jessica Hobbs. Writers are Seth Reiss, Sarah DeLappe, Gary Shteyngart, Jen Spyra, and Juli Weiner.
