Mark Ruffalo will be seen as an FBI agent in the new upcoming HBO miniseries, Task, by Brad Ingelsby and Jeremiah Zagarand, the creators of ‘Mare of Easttown’. Ruffalo will play the character of an agent who will be leading a special forces task.
The ‘Mare of Easttown’, which starred Kate Winslet, has ended its limited series for now, and since the creator and the creation will of the new series are the same, there are chances of a crossover of both series in the future as well.
Mark Ruffalo, the FBI agent, will be seen in ‘Task’.
The ‘Poor Things’ actor has revealed that he’s going to be a part of the upcoming miniseries task from the creators of ‘Mare of Easttown, Brad Ingelsby, and Jeremiah Zagarand.
The character of Ruffalo is going to be the character of an FBI agent who is a good guy but complicated as well and is not going to give up even when he’s ‘badly hurt’.
His “badly damaged but fighting for good” character will be shot in the same ‘universe’ as ‘Mare of Eastown’ has its shooting, revealed by Ruffalo to Deadline.
Is there any chance of the ‘Same Cast’ as well? “At some point, those will run into each other in the future; that’s what they are saying; it’s not set, nothing set,” was teased by Ruffalo.
Kate Winslet had won an Emmy in 2021 for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology series or movie for her role as a detective from Pennsylvania in ‘Mare of Eastown’, whereas the series received 17 nominations.
The limited series ‘Mare of Eastown’ aired its final episode, Sacrament, in May 2021, but the actress has already expressed her interest in making a comeback for another season.
The outcome of the combination of Ingelsby’s brain and Winslet’s acting seen in ‘Mare of Eastown’ was loved by the audience.
The troubled detective character trying to hold back her life, played by Winslet again, would be soothing for detective series lovers.
Making a new season for a limited series would be a unique thing, but still, Ingelsby has expressed his interest in doing another season of Mare of Eastown.
While expressing his interest, he said that if they could crack a story that could be as great as season 1 was, then it would be good because it would do justice to the characters and would help to carry out the story in a way that was organic and surprising. and added, “I would love to do it.”
Ingelsby said, “I just don’t know what the story is; that’s the issue right now,” to TVLine. Winslet has also opened up about her character of “Mare Sheehan,” explaining how hard it was for her.
She said, “I can’t just go, ‘Oh yes, let’s just do it again.” It is like a ‘colossal commitment’ for the actress, as the character has taken a huge amount of her.
But Winslet is still ready to play her role in Mare of Eastown again, as she said, “I know I would do that again; it would have to,” because she is willing to give people what they want from her, and she thinks that ultimately, they deserve to see their beloved Mare Sheehan aka Kate Winslet.
Further, the actress also shared how much she misses her character even though it’s a strange thing, she feels as if she’s been mourning. The role of Mare Sheehan was an ‘absolutely wonderful role’ for her.
She thinks there’s something very addictive about the character, maybe because of how outrageous yet lovable and brilliant she is. She also said that for now, “we will have to settle for hearing Ruffalo’s Philly accent.
