Pugh steps into the shadows as Cathy Ames, confronting darkness and all its treacherous emotional baggage in this seven‑episode limited series adapted by Zoe Kazan from John Steinbeck’s iconic novel.
A novel which, of course, we most definitely read multiple times in school — and still remember every twist, betrayal, and generational bruise.
Kazan’s interpretation promises a modern twist, navigating the multigenerational saga of the Trask family while placing fresh focus on the story’s indelible antihero. Expect a blend of prestige drama, psychological tension, and the kind of character excavation Florence Pugh devours.
