Potential Updates About Mare of Easttown Season 2
While there are numerous speculations about the anticipated season of Mare of Easttown, the lead actress, Kate Winslet, who played Marianne “Mare” Sheehan, gave a possible hint about series renewal. In an interview with the Guardian, she said,
I don’t know if I’m going to be playing Mare again. But if we were to do a second season, then for sure these atrocities that have existed in the police force here and in America will find their way into the stories we tell. One hundred percent. You can’t pretend these things haven’t happened.
On the other hand, creator Brad Ingelsby has echoed Kate’s comment while opening the gates for a possible Season 2. He said, If we can crack a story that is as great [as Season 1] and that would do justice to the characters and carry on the story in a way that was organic and yet surprising, I would love to do it. I just don’t know what the story is. That’s the issue right now.
