First Look: Nicole Kidman in teaser trailer for HBO’s ‘The Undoing’

Undeniably one of the hardest working women in show business, Nicole Kidman isn’t resting for a moment and today HBO released the teaser trailer for her new limited series The Undoing, from Emmy and Academy Award-winning director Susanne Bier.

The Undoing, which premieres this May, stars Kidman and Hugh Grant as Grace and Jonathan Fraser, who are living the only lives they ever wanted for themselves. Overnight a chasm opens in their lives: a violent death and a chain of terrible revelations. Left behind in the wake of a spreading and very public disaster and horrified by the ways in which she has failed to heed her own advice, Grace must dismantle one life and create another for her child (Noah Jupe) and her family. The film also stars Édgar Ramírez, Donald Sutherland and Ismael Cruz Cordova.

Directed by Susanne Bier; created and written for television by David E. Kelley, who also serves as showrunner; executive produced by Susanne Bier, David E. Kelley, Nicole Kidman, Per Saari, Bruna Papandrea, Stephen Garrett and Celia Costas; based on the novel “You Should Have Known,” by Jean Hanff Korelitz.

Here is the the first look.
