“A Quiet Place” and “Honey Boy” star Noah Jupe is joining Nicole Kidman, Hugh Grant and Donald Sutherland on the upcoming HBO limited series, “The Undoing,” an individual with knowledge of production tells TheWrap.
Based on the book “You Should Have Known” by Jean Hanff Korelitz, the six-episode series follows Grace (Kidman) in the wake of a spreading and very public disaster. 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 and herself.
Jupe will play Henry Sachs, Jonathan (Grant) and Grace’s son. Precocious and artistic, Henry seeks to keep his family together as recent revelations tear them apart.
“The Night Manager’s” Susanne Bier is attached to executive produce and direct all six episodes of the series. David E. Kelley is writer, showrunner and executive producing via his David E. Kelley Productions banner.
Kidman, who is re-teaming with Kelley after two seasons of “Big Little Lies,” and Per Saari will executive produce under Blossom Films, alongside Bruna Papandrea for Made Up Stories. Celia Costas is also executive producing.
Jupe is currently at the Sundance Film Festival promoting “Honey Boy,” in which he stars alongside Shia LaBeouf and Lucas Hedges. His other credits include “A Quiet Place,” “Wonder” and “Holmes & Watson.”
Jupe is represented by CAA, Grandview and Christina Shepherd in the United Kingdom.
