Academy Award winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow (Shakespeare in Love, Avengers: Endgame) has signed on to star in the thriller drama series The Apology, which just received a two-season order at Netflix.

The show marks Paltrow’s first major TV role and it’s set to be directed by Oscar winner Thomas Vinterberg (Another Round) in his U.S. television directing debut.

“The Apology, written by Joe Murtagh, follows Evelyn (Paltrow) and Caleb Amspoker whose son was murdered 18 years ago in a cold case that gripped the nation.

“When a stranger suddenly appears and confesses, justice finally seems possible—until they learn the killer may get off with a reduced sentence. Faced with that unbearable truth, Evelyn and Caleb decide to take matters into their own hands.”

This marks Paltrow’s first series regular role. She previously did a recurring arc on Fox’s Glee. On the feature side, she recently starred in Marty Supreme, and Influenced.

She is in pre-production on the film adaptation of Strangers, based on the book by Belle Burden.
