Deadline is reporting that Mary will be starring in her husband Riley Stearns’ next directorial debut, a feature film called Faults. In the film, Mary will play a young cult member whose parents hire an expert to deprogram her, but the expert begins to think they might be more of a threat than the cult.

This comes on the heels of being cast in the Untitled Chris Messina project (which is currently filming) and being cast in Quarry! Congrats on all the recent projects, Mary!!

Mary Starring in New Cinemax Show!

on June 18, 2013 by Jessica Comments Off

Woah. This is amazing news…and unexpected! The Wrap has just reported that Mary Elizabeth Winstead has been cast on the Cinemax drama pilot, “Quarry,” opposite star Logan Marshall Green.

She will play Joni, Quarry’s (Green) wife, who is one of the few who stands by her husband after her returns from the Vietnam War.

Written by Graham Gordy and Michael D. Fuller, the project follows Quarry, a Vietnam vet who evidently learned his lessons all too well during his time overseas. Now he’s home, earning a living as a cold, remorseless hitman, taking orders from a man called simply The Broker (Stellan Skarsgard).

Directed by John Hillcoat, the project is based on Max Allen Collins’ pulp detective novels and it’s set in the 70s.

Congrats, Mary!! This sounds really exciting!
