HBO is staging a bit of a mother-daughter reunion.
Weeks after casting Meryl Streep in season two of Big Little Lies, the premium cable network has cast her daughter Mamie Gummer in season three of True Detective.
Gummer will recur in the Nic Pizzolatto-created drama and play Lucy Purcell, a young mother of two at the center of a tragic crime.
Season three of the anthology tells the story of a macabre crime in the heart of the Ozarks and a mystery that deepens over decades and plays out in three separate time periods. Moonlight Oscar winner Mahershala Ali stars as Wayne Hays, a state police detective from Northwest Arkansas. Carmen Ejogo (Selma) will play the female lead, Amelia Reardon, an Arkansas schoolteacher with a connection to two missing children in 1980. Stephen Dorff and Scoot McNairy co-star.
