Oscar winner Frances McDormand is coming to HBO in OLIVE KITTERIDGE, a new mini-series executive produced by McDormand along with superstar Oscar winner Tom Hanks.

Based on Elizabeth Strout’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, Oscar nominee Richard Jenkins co-stars, while Oscar nominee Lisa Cholodenko directs this poignantly sweet, acerbically funny and devastatingly tragic story of a seemingly placid New England town wrought with illicit affairs, crime and tragedy, told through the lens of a woman whose wicked wit and harsh demeanor mask a warm but troubled heart and a staunch moral center.

Stellar supporting cast includes Bill Murray, John Gallagher, Jr., Peter Mullan, Rosemarie DeWitt and Zoe Kazan.

The first two parts scheduled to debut on SUNDAY, NOV. 2 (9:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT), followed the next night by the debut of the final two parts on MONDAY, NOV. 3 (9:00-11:00 p.m. ET/PT).
