Kate Mara has signed on to star opposite Elisabeth Moss and Kerry Washington in the upcoming Apple TV+ series “Imperfect Women,” Variety has learned.
The series was originally commissioned at Apple in March 2024. It is based on the Araminta Hall novel of the same name.
The official description of the projects states that it is a “psychological thriller examining a crime that shatters the lives of a decades-long friendship of three women. ‘Imperfect Women’ is a mystery complicated by perspective that explores guilt and retribution, love and betrayal, and the compromises we make that alter our lives irrevocably. As the investigation unravels, so does the truth about how even the closest relationships can change over time.”
